Why Decarbonizing Process Heat in Brandenburg is Crucial

The production of industrial process heat is responsible for a significant share of CO₂ emissions. Electrifying this heat is a crucial lever for a successful energy transition in Brandenburg’s strong industrial landscape.

Meeting Binding Climate Targets:
Industrial process heat is one of the largest sources of emissions in Brandenburg. Decarbonizing it is a strategic necessity to achieve the state’s binding climate goals and avoid rising CO₂ levies.

Independence from Fossil Fuels:
Volatile prices and insecure supplies of natural gas pose a significant business risk for Brandenburg’s industries. Thermal storage offers an electrified, predictable, and stable alternative.Utilizing Low-Cost Excess PowerBrandenburg’s leading position in wind and solar energy often results in periods of very low electricity prices. Our thermal batteries can absorb this surplus electricity and store it as valuable high-temperature heat when prices are at their lowest.

Competitive Advantages in Structural Change
Especially in regions such as Lusatia, companies can secure crucial competitive advantages and meet growing sustainability demands from customers and markets by increasing energy efficiency and reducing CO₂ costs.

VIRIDI offers the technology and expertise to implement the industrial heat transition in Brandenburg reliably and economically.

bGen™ Technology

At the heart of our solution lies the innovative bGen™ technology from our partner Brenmiller Energy. It enables highly efficient and cost-effective electrification of your heat processes.

How It Works

Our thermal batteries use electricity to heat a storage medium made of crushed rock. This stored heat is then used on demand to generate steam and provide high-temperature steam (up to 550°C) for your industrial processes—reliably and emissions-free.

Modular & Easy Integration

Thanks to its modular design (scalable from 10 MWh to over 1 GWh), the system can be flexibly adapted to your specific heat requirements in Brandenburg. Integration into your existing infrastructure is quick and requires no lengthy downtime.

Flexible Business Models

We offer you two options for your project in Brandenburg: direct purchase of the system, or “Heat-as-a-Service,” an energy services model where you only pay for the heat you consume without needing to make your own capital investment.

Your Advantages with VIRIDI Thermal Storage

✅ Extreme Durability & Reliability:
The bGen™ technology uses natural materials that do not degrade over time, enabling a lifespan of over 30 years without the cycle degradation known from lithium-ion batteries.

✅ Maximum Cost Efficiency:
With competitive costs per stored energy unit (kWh) and the use of low-cost electricity from the Brandenburg grid, our systems are a highly economical alternative to conventional gas boilers.

✅ Low Supply Chain & Material Risk:
We use inexpensive materials that are readily available worldwide. Our partnership with Brenmiller Energy’s gigafactory ensures unmatched production capacity.

✅ Zero Onsite Emissions:
Replace fossil fuels one-to-one and eliminate CO₂ emissions from your heat processes. This significantly accelerates your company’s decarbonization goals in Brandenburg.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about E-Methanol

What exactly is a thermal battery?

A thermal battery is a system that converts electrical energy into highly storable thermal energy. It uses electricity to heat a solid storage medium (such as rock). This heat can later be released as needed—often as steam—to power industrial processes.

For which industries in Brandenburg is this technology most suitable?

It’s ideal for all energy-intensive industries requiring process heat or steam. In Brandenburg, this includes especially the food and beverage industry, the pulp and paper industry, the chemical industry, building materials production, and metal processing.

How does the “Heat-as-a-Service” model work?

Under this model, VIRIDI (or a partner) invests in and operates the thermal battery at your site. As the customer, you make no upfront capital investment (CAPEX) and simply pay an agreed price for the actual amount of heat you consume (OPEX)—similar to a natural gas supply contract.

How does the bGen™ technology differ from lithium-ion batteries?

The main difference lies in purpose and durability. Lithium-ion batteries store electricity as electricity. Our thermal battery converts electricity into heat, which is much more efficient for thermal processes. Additionally, it uses robust, non-degrading materials with a lifespan of over 30 years, while lithium-ion batteries suffer from cycle-related aging.

How much space does such a system require?

Space requirements are relatively low thanks to the compact, modular design. Exact dimensions depend on the storage capacity needed. The system can be flexibly adapted to the available space on your industrial site in Brandenburg.
