WHAT IS ETS?

Steffes delivers efficient, sustainable heating solutions powered by Electric Thermal Storage (ETS) technology. Our ETS systems draw electricity from the grid to heat ceramic bricks engineered to store thermal energy for extended periods. That stored heat is released when it’s needed, providing consistent, comfortable warmth to individual rooms or entire homes and large buildings with exceptional efficiency.

By intelligently charging during off-peak hours, our systems help utilities balance supply and demand while reducing strain on the grid. The result is a more resilient, reliable energy infrastructure for communities everywhere.

Our scalable ETS solutions support utilities in achieving their environmental goals while empowering them to offer cost-saving off-peak programs to customers. ETS is a win for the grid, a win for the environment, and a win for the people who rely on electricity every day.
