Our take
As the world shifts toward cleaner energy, the demand for reliable, sustainable power is only growing. Wind and solar energy are booming, but their output can be unpredictable (sunlight doesn't always shine and the wind doesn't always blow). And this makes storing energy for when it's needed a critical part of building a zero-carbon future.
Highview Power is tackling this challenge with long-duration energy storage using liquid air. Essentially, their system captures excess renewable energy, cools air until it becomes liquid, and stores it safely for hours, days, or even weeks. So, when electricity is needed, the liquid air is warmed to drive turbines, generating power without producing any emissions. Their plants are scalable, reliable, and can be built almost anywhere, making renewable energy easier to access.
Recently, Highview hit an important milestone by raising £130M to build a new facility in Scotland. The plant will create a "stability island" to balance the grid and help transport renewable energy from offshore wind farms to where it's needed most. This project not only strengthens the UK's energy system but also puts Highview in a perfect position for growth, creating jobs, boosting the local supply chain, and taking a huge step toward a fully renewable future.
