Nostromo Energy Limited provides a large-scale, commercially available behind-the-meter (“BTM”) energy storage solution for widespread, grid-interactive deployment in commercial and industrial (C&I) buildings. It enables customers to realize both energy cost savings and greenhouse gas reduction and supports grid modernization and decarbonization through intelligent, large-scale load management as a virtual power plant (VPP). Buildings consume an estimated 74% of all electricity, and BTM energy storage is their biggest GHG reduction opportunity. However, due to safety concerns with lithium batteries, only 1% of all new energy storage is installed in commercial and industrial (C&I) buildings. Nostromo offers a smart, grid-interactive, and scalable energy storage solution for C&I buildings, that powers air conditioning, which accounts for approximately half of their electricity use and the overall peak load on the power grid. The system is based on Nostromo’s safe, cost-effective & patented IceBrick® energy storage cell, which efficiently charges at off-peak hours or from surplus renewable energy, and discharges during peak hours to meet cooling demand by controlled release of the energy into the building’s air-conditioning system, instead of relying on energy-intensive chillers. Its advanced cloud-based management provides a suite of novel BTM energy storage management tools for optimizing revenue streams and automated virtual power plant (VPP) operations. The IceBricks® are compact, modular, and can be retrofitted onto almost any chiller-cooled building to rapidly integrate energy storage into the existing building stock. The Company currently has units installed across Israel, and has recently installed a 1,300 kWh system at the Beverly Hilton and Waldorf Astoria hotels in Beverly Hills, California serving as the IceBrick Innovation Center (contact us to visit).

This news from COP29 is the stuff that doesn’t make headlines. Yet, 50 governments coming together to sign a declaration to make tourism around the globe more climate-friendly is a big deal. This is a recognition that hotels are ripe for decarbonization and are a central part of the clean transition. But more than being a green win, this move makes business sense. As Kanan Gasimov, head of administration at Azerbaijan's tourism agency, noted: “We now understand that the future of our business depends on the sustainability of our actions today.” https://lnkd.in/dAP7UJyu #CoolingGlobalWarming #TES #EnergyStorage #decarbonization #COP29

Keeping the average hotel cool is estimated to consume approximately 70% of its peak energy load. This makes cooling a costly and carbon-intensive undertaking. The tricky thing is that because the hotel’s energy consumption often peaks after renewables are unavailable, electricity, in general, and electricity for cooling specifically become costly for the hotel and the grid. That’s where Nostromo’s IceBrick® comes in. This ice-based energy storage system stores energy when it’s abundant and cheap to be discharged at peak time, resulting in reduced cooling costs and carbon emissions.

"It’s not just about having more batteries - it's about putting them in the right places with the right operating model." Jamie Skaar We could not agree more! The grid is like a highway. And the old approach of simply building more lanes isn’t effective. Just look at the interconnection queue backlog. But if investing in more transmission lines isn’t the answer, what is? An important part of the answer is energy storage on the building premises (Behind the Meter). It can be used to reduce demand during peak times with no interconnections needed.

The Grid's $100B Blind Spot: Why Location Changes Everything 🔍 Here's a shocking reality: While we're racing to build more batteries for renewable energy, we might be putting them in all the wrong places. New research reveals that a 20-year-old regulatory framework could make energy storage projects 2-3x more valuable - but almost no one is using it. Here's why this matters for our clean energy future: Think of our power grid like a highway system. When traffic (electricity) backs up, we typically build more lanes (transmission lines). But what if we could store that traffic temporarily and release it when the roads are clear? That's what grid-scale storage can do - if we deploy it strategically. Let's break down the three ways storage can work with the grid: 1. Storage AS Grid Infrastructure - Works like an HOV lane, actively managing traffic flow - Controlled by grid operators for reliability - Gets guaranteed returns like other grid assets - Surprisingly rare: Only 5 projects since 2007 2. Storage NEAR Grid Bottlenecks - Works like a rest stop, temporarily holding traffic - Operated by private companies - Makes money from energy markets - Currently 90% of all projects 3. The Hybrid Approach (Not Yet Allowed) - Combines both roles flexibly - Shares benefits with customers - Could maximize value for everyone - No regions currently permit this The missed opportunity? While we're building record amounts of storage, we're mostly using the second approach - potentially leaving billions in value and reliability benefits untapped. Key insight: It's not just about having more batteries - it's about putting them in the right places with the right operating model. As extreme weather stresses our grid, this distinction matters more than ever. Question for energy leaders: How do we evolve market rules to capture the full value of storage? Are we thinking too narrowly about where these assets should go? #GridResilience #EnergyStorage #CleanEnergy #Infrastructure

True or False: Are new builds more effective than retrofits in decarbonizing the building sector? False. According to new research from Notre Dame, retrofitting existing buildings can cut emissions even more effectively than building new, energy-efficient structures. This is where Nostromo’s modular IceBrick® system stands out. IceBrick® thermal energy storage cells are compact and stackable and can be installed along walls or beneath pavements, making them perfect for retrofits. By leveraging IceBrick®, existing buildings can dramatically reduce cooling-related emissions, helping accelerate true decarbonization. #CoolingGlobalWarming #EnergyStorage #TES #Renewables #Decarbonization

As global energy demand surges—driven by the expansion of AI and rising air conditioning needs—power grids are feeling the strain, and renewable energy alone can't keep pace. To ensure a sustainable, resilient grid, behind-the-meter energy storage solutions are essential. Nostromo's IceBrick® technology can play an important role by managing peak energy loads in commercial and industrial buildings. By storing energy during off-peak hours and releasing it when demand spikes, the system helps stabilize the grid and optimize the use of renewable power. This can be a practical step toward reducing reliance on fossil fuels while meeting today’s energy-intensive demands. #CoolingGlobalWarming #EnergyStorage #TES #renewables #decarbonization
