TechCrunch is the latest major publication to highlight EnterpriseWorks startup Cache Energy and its novel, inexpensive energy storage solution.
“Rather than store power as heat using sand or specially made bricks, Cache is storing it in chemical bonds inside pellets made of lime derived from limestone,” writes TechCrunch reporter Tim De Chant.
In the interview, Founder and CEO Arpit Dwivedi discussed the company’s development of the lime-based pellets that store energy chemically. This low-cost, sustainable method provides an alternative to traditional batteries by using pellets to produce heat, which can be released on demand.
Dwivedi emphasized the solution’s practicality, telling TechCrunch, “It’s a low-cost solid that is able to produce heat and can use some of the similar infrastructure built around fossil fuel.”
