20MWh Thermal battery storing heat at 1800C. That is what we need to electrify industrial heat - still the biggest consumer of fossil fuels. Thai cement factory now runs entirely on renewables using a similar thermal storage for overnight operations. We are almost there.

Texas energy market is free market on steroids. And look what free market is leaning into. Almost all energy addition between now and 2030 is coming from solar and storage. Renewables are unstoppable. That is the future of energy.
