Zero Industrial is a development company focused on decarbonizing industrial heat by deploying commercially available thermal energy storage (TES) systems at industrial facilities. The company provides full project development services including technology selection, project design, and engineering for each TES system. Zero Industrial will fully finance projects and sell clean heat or steam to customers under long-term Heat-as-a-Service contracts without requiring upfront capital from the industrial facility. Founded in 2024 and based in Charleston, S.C., the company is actively originating and developing projects in the United States and Canada and is exploring additional international markets. Management plans to accelerate deployment of TES projects in North America to shift curtailed or off-peak clean electricity into baseload heat and steam, reducing energy costs and emissions. The company recently closed a $10 million financing to support project development and deployment.
