Smart control for a simple heating element: our controller box is taking shape
An electric heating element turns electricity into useful heat. Suitable control determines when and how to use it. We are preparing a separate controller box for straightforward resistive heating loads, with a preliminary price of approximately CZK 5,999.

Hudratore Tomo AI Core: one energy plan for the whole home
Solar generation, a battery and household heating work best when their needs are considered together. We are developing a compact local energy controller with a shared plan for the home. Hudratore Tomo AI Core is built around real data and evaluated in our reference installation.

Autumn 2026: bringing battery and thermal storage together
Solar electricity during the day, light and comfortable warmth in the evening. A battery and thermal storage can serve different, complementary needs in the same home. Their value comes from control that reflects actual consumption and household priorities.

Industrial electrification turns stored heat into a controllable energy asset
The EU sees more than 2,000 TWh of technical industrial-electrification potential by 2040. Thermal storage can separate the time electricity is bought from the time process heat is used.
-

EU grid queues are changing the value of flexible battery connections
Connection queues now affect at least 16 EU countries. Flexible agreements, hybrid systems and storage can help projects use existing grid capacity while reinforcement catches up.
-

Battery demand passed 1.5 TWh — supply-chain resilience now matters
Global battery demand grew by more than a third in 2025. Behind expanding storage choice sits a concentrated minerals and refining chain that buyers and installers cannot ignore.
-

EU agreement sets a 200 GW energy-storage direction for 2030
Governments, finance, manufacturers, developers and energy users have agreed to accelerate storage deployment toward the capacity Europe expects to need by 2030.
-

Europe passed 100 GW of energy storage: what buyers should compare
Installed storage capacity across Europe passed 100 GW. For buyers, capacity is only the first number: power, compatibility, usable energy and control matter too.
-

Seasonal heat storage can connect solar energy, waste heat and district heating
Thermal storage can shift heat for hours, days or entire seasons. New district-energy guidance shows why storage is becoming the bridge between varied heat sources and changing demand.
-

Thermal storage can cut heating costs while batteries power electrical equipment
Thermal storage can shift electricity use into favourable periods, supply later heat and preserve electrochemical battery capacity for loads that must remain electrical.
