NEW | As batteries become cheaper and more efficient, costs to store daytime solar are plummeting.
Outside China and the US, it now only costs an additional $33/MWh to transform daytime solar into dispatchable nighttime energy ๐

Weโre proud to announce that our John Hottle, PhD โ Director of R&D at Prometheus Materials โ will present at next weekโs ASTM Committee Week in Atlanta, Georgia. This important gathering brings together industry experts, standards-makers and innovators from around the world to shape the future of construction materials and standards.
During Wednesday's Committee C01 on Cement-Research Discussions (Grand Ballroom A at Noon), John will be discussing our carbon negative ProZEROยฎ cement replacement blend, its properties and performance โ as reported by large-scale producers and manufacturers โ and will share results from use cases with data center hyperscalers at multiple campuses across the U.S.
By spotlighting ProZEROยฎ and its robust track record, Prometheus Materials is leading the effort to define and standardize low-carbon and sustainable cementitious materials.
