The Tin Age of Energy Storage
06 Nov 2025 | 
Fourth Power's thermal battery stores energy as heat in molten tin at 2,400°C, then converts it to DC electricity using thermophotovoltaic cells. It promises 5–100 hour storage at 1/10th the cost of lithium-ion, with minimal heat loss and no rare earths. Gold in the emitter adds cost risk, but thin-film use may offset it. Competing with Antora and Malta, it targets grid-scale renewables. Adoption depends on pilot success and utility buy-in.
