Technology

Mountain Battery™ is a thermal geostructure designed for crystalline bedrock. Through guided directional drilling and the creation of heat fins, a large underground thermal reservoir is formed — capable of storing heat at temperatures up to 250°C. This makes the solution ideal for:

  • Industrial waste heat

  • Solar thermal and wind power

  • Energy parks and industrial clusters

  • District heating systems — with or without heat pumps

  • Seasonal storage in Nordic climates

Powering cities municipalites and industries with sustainable thermal energy

Nøkkelen til løsningen ligger i et effektivt energilager

Mountain BatteryTM er en løsning som gjør det mulig å lagre varmeenergi fra sommer til vinter- som et batteri for varme.

Teknologien utnytter solfangere på taket eller andre varmekilder, og lagrer overskuddsenergien i et underjordisk bergenergialager. Dette fungerer som en stor radiator i fjellet, hvor varmen lagres i en akkumulatortank tilsvarende flere millioner liter vann.Ved hjelp av den unike Mountain Battery-teknologien kan overskuddsenergi lagres effektivt om sommeren og hentes ut igjen om vinteren.

Solfangerne fortsetter å levere energi gjennom vinteren, og i kombinasjon med lageret sikres bygget stabil og forutsigbar varmeforsyning - uten behov for store varmepumper eller fjernvarme.Anlegget kan levere vann med temperaturer mellom 40-60 °C, mens kjøling om sommeren leveres fra bakken med kaldt vann på 8-9 °C. Detter kan gjøre med minimal eller ingen bruk av varmepumper eller annen ekstern energiforysning.

Transition to thermal heating – reducing grid load

Mountain Battery™ enables large-scale thermal storage directly in crystalline bedrock, relieving pressure on the
electricity grid and supporting the shift from electric to thermal heating.

Why Mountain Battery™ matters

Transition to thermal heating – reducing grid load

Mountain Battery™ enables large-scale thermal storage directly in crystalline bedrock, relieving pressure on the electricity grid and supporting the shift from electric to thermal heating.

Reduced nature impact

No land use, no excavation, no critical minerals. Just boreholes in the bedrock — providing energy storage with minimal environmental footprint.

Better use of surplus heat and solar thermal energy

Compared to other heat storage system, the system is more cost-effective, provides significantly higher
performance, and can be operated without heat pumps.

The georadiator
Through guided directional drilling of wells in a specific
configuration, and the development of fins that connect
these wells, a large subsurface radiator can be utilized for
seasonal heat storage.

Thermal storage
Storage range 0-300°C. 1-20 MW. No need for surface
insulation. Because of the unique heat-fin structure, no
thermal expansion or leakage is expected.

Compared to other heat storage system, the system is
more cost-effective, provides significantly higher
performance,
and can be operated without heat pumps.
