Electrification doesn’t have to mean higher bills

Whether your goal is a positive ROI or the lowest-cost path to full electrification, the right system design makes all the difference. Caldera can model your steam demand and find the best payback, including considering hybrid systems alongside gas boilers or heat pumps.

Storage Boilers can often achieve a positive payback by charging off-peak, earning revenues from balancing the grid, maximising use of an existing grid connection and minimising thermal losses.

Business Case

Electric boiler systems for industrial steam

Caldera’s Storage Boiler is an electric boiler with integrated thermal storage and intelligent controls. At the heart of the system is Caldera’s proprietary technology, combining advanced storage materials with vacuum insulation to deliver high efficiency and minimise heat losses.

Designed for rapid installation and easy integration into existing steam systems, our turnkey solutions offer a practical path to affordable industrial steam decarbonisation.

Product

Applications across sectors

Industrial sites can electrify steam without replacing the equipment their process already relies on. Caldera's Storage Boilers are relevant across all steam-using sectors including food and beverage, brewing, distilling, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and paper and packaging.

Generates steam up to 16 barg (204°C)

Fits retrofit or new build projects

Enables full or partial electrification

Tackling key challenges

Caldera’s Storage Boilers are a type of Electro Thermal Energy Storage (ETES) and effectively tackle a range of interconnected global issues.

Industrial emissions

20% of all greenhouse gas emissions come from making industrial heat.

Dependable heat

Electric boilers can’t deliver clean heat when renewables are scarce and expensive.

Economic viability

Current energy storage solutions do not match the cost-effectiveness of fossil fuels.

Grid congestion

Power from solar is very affordable, but grid congestion hinders rapid deployment.

GEA invests in Caldera

GEA reinforced its commitment to decarbonizing industrial heat by investing in Caldera in March 2025. This partnership brings together GEA’s global process and heating expertise with Caldera’s innovative electric Storage Boilers, enabling a holistic electrification solution for process heat. When combined with GEA’s heat pumps, the complementary system supports the decarbonization of industrial steam demand—typical in sectors such as food, beverage, and pharmaceuticals.

Tackling key challenges

Caldera’s Storage Boilers are a type of Electro Thermal Energy Storage (ETES) and effectively tackle a range of interconnected global issues.

Industrial emissions

Over 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from making industrial heat

Affordable heat

Lower cost clean heat help businesses cut emissions without increasing consumer costs.

Grid balancing

Electricity grids need flexible loads to help match variable generation with demand.

Grid congestion

Grid capacity is often limited at peak times, while spare capacity sits unused off peak.
