more reliable: 25+ years with no performance degradation
Terrajoule's Decisively Lower Cost of Dispatchable Electricity Accelerates the Fossil-to-Solar Tipping Point.
ENERGY 24/7
Fossil-to-solar tipping point
The remarkable reduction of PV panel cost proved that renewable energy can be cheaper than fossil energy - but only in the middle of the day.
​
However, we need energy 24/7, with demand often peaking at night. To complete the transition, the sun’s energy must be stored and dispatched on demand. Terrajoule accelerates the transition.

CRITICAL COST FACTOR
Energy Storage
For PV+BATTERY, the cost of energy storage dominates the cost of fully-dispatchable solar power.
Terrajoule’s patented DSM storage innovation leapfrogs battery cost, at a fraction of the cost of lithium-ion batteries from day 1.
There is already massive worldwide capacity to manufacture GWh of this storage capacity, without spending a penny on “gigafactories”.
