History

The company was founded by Lars Jacobsson in 2010 as United Sun Systems which was renamed in 2018 as TEXEL Energy Storage.[4]

After the bankruptcy of the American company Stirling Energy Systems in 2012, United Sun Systems bought the Stirling Energy Systems Maricopa solar plant in Phoenix, Arizona, in a joint venture with a Chinese/American corporation.[7]

TEXEL signed a license agreement in 2018 on a new battery/energy storage solution with US Department of Energy (DOE) and Savannah River National laboratory (SRNL).[8][9]

In September 2018 at the DOE, X-Labs, Stanford University energy storage summit at SLAC in Silicon Valley the TEXEL technology was appointed the success story beyond lithium batteries.[10]
