NOTE: This blog was originally published in April 2023, it was updated in August 2024 to reflect the latest information. Even the most ardent solar evangelists can agree on one limitation solar panels have: they only produce electricity when the sun is shining. But, peak energy use tends to come in the evenings, coinciding with decreased solar generation and causing a supply and

The company’s heat storage system relies on a resistance heater, which transforms electricity into heat using the same method as a space heater or toaster—but on a larger scale, and reaching a much higher temperature. That heat is then used to warm up carefully engineered and arranged stacks of bricks, which store the heat for later use.
Total heat removed by both the cooling design matches with the total heat developed by the battery. Lai et al. perform a numerical analysis on a compact and lightweight liquid-cooled battery system as shown in Fig. 13.
