Electrified Thermal Solutions’ electrically conductive firebrick offers a cost-effective and scalable solution for industrial heat decarbonization through three key innovations:
- Manufacturing compatibility: The bricks retain 98% similarity to conventional firebricks, enabling production using existing industrial infrastructure and keeping material costs low. This avoids the need for specialized manufacturing processes.
- High-temperature operation: The bricks directly convert electricity to heat up to 1,800°C (3,275°F), bypassing traditional resistance heaters that limit temperature and durability. This eliminates heater replacement costs while supporting energy-intensive industries like steel and cement.
- Thermal battery advantages: The Joule Hive™ system stores heat with >95% efficiency, allowing off-peak renewable electricity use to reduce energy costs. The high energy density minimizes physical footprint and balance-of-plant expenses.
Scalability is enhanced through existing supply chains for firebrick production and modular thermal battery design, while cost-effectiveness stems from lower operational expenses compared to fossil fuel alternatives.
