Offering clean energy around the clock

MIT spinout 247Solar is building high-temperature, concentrated solar power systems that use overnight thermal energy storage to provide round-the-clock power and industrial-grade heat. The systems can be used as standalone microgrids for communities or to provide power in remote places like mines and farms.
