Electrification with Thermal Energy Storage (TES): Cost-effective & sustainable process heat for the food and chemical industry

Thermal Energy Storage (TES) enables industries to use electricity when it is most cost-effective and aligned with high renewable energy availability. This stored energy can then be deployed during periods of higher market prices, reducing operational costs while supporting sustainability goals.

This 60-minute webinar, will show you how TES works in practice - featuring the Volt project in the Netherlands, where Kraftblock GmbH, in collaboration with PepsiCo and Eneco, is electrifying the frying process for potato chips. Kraftblock’s modular system delivers hot air, steam, or thermal oil, and can be scaled to meet diverse temperature and process requirements.

Exclusive insights from industry experts

• Tobias Küter, Energy Advisor at SLR, will dive into the economics and opportunities of TES in Europe, drawing on over a decade of experience in the chemical industry with a focus on grid, power, and heat infrastructure.

• Florent Baudu (CCO), Kraftblock, will present the Thermal Battery technology, the Volt project, and real-world use cases in food and chemical industries.

After the presentations, we will have plenty of time for your questions and can talk about your processes. What you’ll gain:

• Technical know-how: How TES electrifies your processes without compromising performance or cost.

• Economic insights: Why TES is a smart investment for the future of your production.

• Practical examples: Success factors from the Volt project and other applications.

This webinar is for decision-makers, engineers, sustainability managers, and industry professionals in the food, chemical, and related sectors who want to future-proof their operations.
