Silbat: Molten Silicon Electricity Storage
InnoStation
01/29/24 • 25 min
Ignacio Luque is the co-founder of Silbat, a company revolutionizing energy storage for renewable sources. Silbat's innovative approach involves storing excess renewable energy in molten silicon at temperatures reaching up to 1400°C, and recovering the stored energy in the form of electricity using thermophotovoltaic cells.
Today, as the world grapples with the challenges of energy sustainability and the need for reliable renewable energy sources, Silbat's innovation presents a promising solution. With an eye on both efficiency and cost-effectiveness, their technology boasts a CapEx of around $13 per kilowatt-hour, making sustainable energy more accessible than ever.
Join us as we dive into the mechanics of Silbat's molten silicon storage system, its impact on the renewable energy landscape, and Ignacio's journey from concept to realization. We'll explore how Silbat's technology is not just a leap in energy storage but also a versatile, adaptable solution for modern energy demands, setting new standards in the industry."

In this episode of InnoStation, we sit down with Alberto Mendes Rebollo, CEO and co-founder of Plexigrid, a trailblazing company redefining electricity distribution for the energy transition. Alberto enlightens us on the current challenges of electrical grids, particularly with the shift towards decentralized and variable renewable energy sources.
The distribution networks, which transport power from the outskirts of a city to households, are immensely more complex than the transmission network, with tens or even hundreds of millions of nodes. And below 20,000 volts, the system operators are essentially blind, without real-time network data or power flow computations.
Join us as we discuss Plexigrid's innovative approach for managing the complex dynamics of modern power systems, focusing on the three core 'superpowers' any distrubution grid should have: real-time visibility across the grid, advanced real-time analytics, and the ability to dynamically manage energy flexibility.
This episode is a deep dive into the future of energy distribution, guided by one of the leading minds in the field!

Christophe Williams is the CEO and co-founder of Naked Energy, a start-up revolutionising solar with the world’s highest energy density solar technology and with a mission to change energy for good.
Today, heat accounts for over half (51%) of global energy demand and is still generated primarily through the burning of fossil fuels. And, according to the International Energy Agency, solar thermal and geothermal will meet 75% of all heat demand by 2050.
If you are serious about decarbonising, you must tackle heat. And if you are concerned about the cost, solar thermal presents the solution.
Join us as we discuss the vital role of solar thermal in the energy transition, how Naked Energy is transforming the way we heat our buildings, and Christophe's insight from a lifelong career in marketing to pivoting to renewable energy.
