Pioneering cleantech collaboration announced at Breakthrough Energy Summit in London.

Tamarindo’s analysis “World’s Super‑Rich Do Battle in Energy Storage Sector” spotlights the vast ambitions shaping the energy storage market, citing high-profile investments from the likes of Musk, Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg, Buffett—and also recognizing Malta Inc. among the innovative players advancing the sector.

At the CleanTech Innovation Collider held on April 23, 2024, under the banner “Building Breakthroughs in CleanTech Innovation in Iberia: One Joint Vision for 2030,” IE School of Science and Technology brought together entrepreneurs, tech leaders, and academics to explore the keys for positioning the Iberian Peninsula as a European cleantech hub.

MIT Technology Review has named thermal batteries as the 11th Breakthrough Technology of 2024. The article spotlighted how this technology is gaining momentum in the energy transition. It recognized innovative companies, including Malta Inc., for pioneering next-generation heat-based storage solutions that complement conventional batteries and power systems.

In its feature “Salt, Air and Bricks: Could This Be the Future of Energy Storage?”, The Guardian explores how industries are turning to materials like salt, air, and bricks—and their promising capacity to store heat—as emerging alternatives to conventional batteries. The article specifically spotlights startups including Malta Inc., which is developing molten salt-based systems designed to complement lithium-ion and hydrogen storage, offering long-duration and low-degradation performance—all intended to help bridge gaps in the clean energy transition.

In this episode of Harvard Business Review’s Exponential View podcast, Malta CEO Ramya Swaminathan sits down with host Azeem Azhar to explore how Malta’s molten salt–based energy storage approach is reshaping the power grid. The conversation covers the critical role of long-duration storage in decarbonization, the economics behind it, and how integrating diverse, mature technologies can underpin a resilient, renewable-powered future.
