Company Description
TerraStor is an independent energy storage provider reinventing the electrical grid by solving difficult technological problems to create low-cost, highly-responsive, extra-long duration, grid-scale energy storage for a 24/7 carbon-free energy future. They develop highly efficient advanced compressed air energy storage (ACAES) systems. ACAES systems are large, mechanical batteries that: - Charge by compressing air during periods of high electricity production and low demand - Store the compressed air until needed in an underground reservoir, such as a repurposed natural gas field or salt cavern - Discharge the compressed air through a turbine to run an electric generator when electricity is in high demand
