A recent UN report highlighted the slow progress in carbon reduction globally and emphasized the need for increased energy efficiency and renewable energy capacity to meet the Paris Agreement goals. The completion of the world's first molten salt energy storage plant in Esbjerg, Denmark signifies a significant milestone in advancing long-duration energy storage technology. Funded by Denmark's EUDP program, the project aims to facilitate the storage of renewable energy and promote sustainable energy transition. The project is expected to fully commercialize by 2026, storing renewable energy in molten hydroxide salt at high temperatures to support various industrial processes and energy production while reducing carbon emissions.
