Reliable, zero-emissions industrial heat and power
Antora’s factory-made thermal batteries convert low-cost, intermittent renewable electricity into reliable industrial energy. Our mission is to stop climate change.
Antora is unlocking zero-emissions industrial energy, cheaper than fossil fuels.
We make it possible and profitable for industry to fully rely on renewable energy.
Antora uses renewable electricity to heat blocks of solid carbon to glowing-hot temperatures in an insulated module. The stored heat is then delivered at the scale and temperatures that large industrial operations demand. And Antora’s thermal battery can output electricity at breakthrough efficiencies using Antora’s heat-to-power thermophotovoltaic (TPV) technology.

The New Hot Climate Investment Is Heat Itself
Antora has raised $150 million in Series B funding, led by Decarbonization Partners, to slash industrial emissions and rapidly scale our technology. "Antora represents the next era for wind and solar,” says Meghan Sharp, global head of Decarbonization Partners, in the Wall Street Journal. “They’re bringing renewables to industry.”

These Hot Rocks Can Glow Brighter than the Sun. They Could Also Help Spell the End of Fossil Fuels.
CNN Chief Climate Correspondent Bill Weir visited Antora to see our thermal battery in action. “I'm confident that we're going to be able to take that huge tool that we have in solar and wind,” shared Antora co-founder and CEO Andrew Ponec, “and displace fossil fuels faster even than most people think.”

Antora Raises $150 Million to Slash Industrial Emissions: A Letter from Our Founders
We started Antora with a simple question: How can we make the biggest positive impact on climate change? The answer is clear: Manufacturing is the single largest driver of climate change, accounting for a staggering 30% of global emissions. And the only way to restore a livable planet is to take that number down to zero.
