Sthyr Energy

This entity addresses the challenge of energy curtailment, a situation where surplus energy is wasted when generation from renewable sources exceeds grid demand. The core of its operation is a Zinc Air Battery (ZAB) technology, which provides a long-duration energy storage solution. This system is designed to store renewable power for months without degradation, offering a scalable and safe alternative to other storage methods.

The technology functions through a closed-loop cycle. Energy is stored in dense zinc plates. When power is required, these plates react with ambient air and a water-based electrolyte to release electricity. The resulting zinc oxide (ZnO) is then converted back into zinc, allowing the materials to be reused. This process aims to provide a stable and reliable energy supply, directly tackling the operational and financial inefficiencies caused by the mismatch between energy generation and demand.

The primary clients for this storage solution are asset managers, investors, and independent power producers within the clean energy sector. By storing excess energy, these clients can better manage their assets and improve financial returns, which are otherwise impacted by the inability to sell or use all the power they generate.
