MGA Thermal 

Located in Newcastle, the Thermal Demonstration Plant evolves the design, manufacture and operation of a demonstration-scale thermal energy storage system. 

The project includes building and demonstrating the performance of the thermal energy storage system technology in a test environment, simulating a variety of end-use applications. These include power generation and use, process heat and green hydrogen production. The project will also produce data and insights to inform business cases for future application of the technology.
