# Antora Energy Plans 5.8 GWh Kansas Battery

Antora Energy plans to deploy a 5.8 GWh thermal battery at Pratt Energy’s biorefinery in Pratt, Kansas, with energy supply scheduled to begin in 2027 under an offtake agreement. The project is a commercial industrial-energy deployment, not a publicly announced government solicitation; no project cost, power rating, procurement schedule, or solicitation details have been disclosed. For procurement professionals and contractors, it is a potential supply-chain signal for industrial-scale thermal storage, construction, equipment, and grid integration in Kansas.

- Contractors may find potential work in equipment, construction, and grid integration, but the available information does not identify specific procurements or bid dates.
