Aed Energy

Aed Energy is demonstrating a 10 MWh modular thermal energy storage system at an Impala Platinum site in South Africa. The system will use electricity to store energy as heat and deliver it on demand, replacing coal-fired heat in existing industrial processes while maintaining a continuous thermal supply. Working with CENEC, CPE and Impala Platinum Mines, with independent validation from DNV UK, the project will integrate and operate the technology under real industrial conditions. The pilot aims to establish a standardised, replicable model for lower-carbon and more resilient heat across mining, manufacturing, food processing and other heat-intensive sectors.
