About Calectra:

Calectra is on a mission to electrify and decarbonize high-temperature industrial heat.

Our human societies are dependent on materials like cement, steel, glass, and chemicals. The process heat for the production of these critical materials requires one quarter of global energy consumption. Today, this process heat is fossil-based and accounts for 10% of global CO2 emissions. With many material production processes requiring very high-temperature heat, cost-effective alternatives to fossil fuel combustion have been difficult to develop.

Calectra is developing a novel thermal storage technology to provide low-cost, zero-carbon, high-temperature process heat for manufacturing industries. The Calectra thermal storage technology converts low-cost, off-peak, renewable electricity into high-temperature heat and delivers it to industrial manufacturers on-demand. Calectras co-founder & CTO, Nate Weger, worked on the technology concept during his PhD at UC Berkeley / Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

Calectras co-founders, Nate and Pauliina, met at the US Department of Energys Cradle to Commerce program in 2023. Since then, the Calectra team is grateful to have been supported by the Activate and Venture for Climate Tech programs. We are a mission-driven and action-biased team aiming to make a dent in the climate crisis with Calectra.
