Calectra is a Bay Area-based startup on a mission to electrify the heavy industry - at low cost. We provide zero-carbon, low-cost up to 1600°C process heat for heavy industries like cement, chemicals, glass, steel, and other metals - using our thermal storage technology. Our thermal storage technology stores off-peak renewable electricity as heat in our patent-pending bricks. The stored heat is provided to the retrofitted industrial process with up to 1600°C air. Calectra is backed by Activate, the US Department of Energy-funded Cradle to Commerce, NYSERDA-funded Venture for Climate Tech, and MIT The Engine's Blueprint programs.
