The Berlin agenda is unusually close to home. One of the day's deep-dive sessions is titled Thermal Storage vs. BESS. Others cover decentralised energy supply for industrial sites and best practice for decarbonising district heating in Europe.
These are exactly the trade-offs our customers work through before they sign: store electricity as heat or as electrons, electrify now or wait, carry the capex or buy the steam. We have spent ten years and two commercial installations answering those questions in practice including the thermal energy storage unit at KALL Ingredients in Hungary.
We are not presenting this year. We are there to compare notes, and to show what the answers look like on a real factory site.
