"The sustainability and circular economic benefits of Energy Vault’s storage systems are truly differentiated, and I believe that its ability to deliver short and long-term duration storage with a hardware-agnostic energy management software platform will provide a competitive advantage for utilities, energy companies and mining companies in APAC, which need energy on demand and for long periods of time to fuel 24/7 operations. Energy Vault has already achieved strong traction in the region and I look forward to further expanding deployment opportunities for the company’s gravity storage and software platform throughout APAC."
