Malta and Bechtel join forces to speed rollout of long-duration energy
Working together, Bechtel and Malta intend to identify and seize opportunities to deploy long-duration energy storage plants that store electricity for days or weeks – converting
The Malta PHES energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics and uses conventional components that have been present in power plants for hundreds of years. Electricity from the grid is used to heat molten salt and cool a chilled liquid. In these forms, energy can be efficiently stored for long durations.
Malta has developed a long-duration energy storage solution that leverages steam-based heat pump technology to provide a cost-efficient, flexible, and integration-ready option for utility and industrial clients.
Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics. Malta's electro-thermal energy storage system is built with abundant, field-proven components that are fully recyclable and reclaimable. Molten salt is the most mature technology used in thermal storage.
“We are honored to partner with the DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics as a leader in the field of thermal storage plants, to explore how Malta's pumped thermal energy storage technology can accelerate Germany's power and heat transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy.
Energy in Malta describes energy production, consumption and import in Malta. Malta has no domestic resource of fossil fuels and no gas distribution network, and relies overwhelmingly on imports of fossil fuels and electricity to cover its energy needs.
As an LDES asset, Malta's technology allows utilities to reliably deploy vastly more wind and solar power without the risks of unavailability or curtailment of excess generation. As a clean power plant, it delivers the same grid resilience and reliability services that fossil-fueled plants do but wind and solar do not.
