Portugal's EDP and Rondo Energy have partnered to provide zero-emission steam for industrial use through a heat-as-a-service agreement using a 7 MW solar plant and a 100 MWh thermal battery. The project with Central de Cervejas e Bebidas aims to store renewable electricity as high-temperature heat to supply continuous, carbon-free steam, replacing fossil-fuel boilers. This innovative approach of combining renewable energy generation with on-site heat storage could serve as a model for other energy-intensive industries like food and beverage, paper, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals.
