Claim 0:
1. A method for material activation, comprising:
receiving, by a thermal energy storage (TES) system of a material activation system, energy supplied by an energy source;
storing, by the TES system, the received energy as thermal energy by heating a storage medium with the received energy;
circulating, by the TES system, a non-combustive fluid through the heated storage medium;
receiving, by a heat exchanger, the circulated non-combustive fluid from the TES system;
transferring, by the heat exchanger, heat from the circulated non-combustive fluid to a second fluid;
providing the second fluid to a material heating system of the material activation system; and
applying, by the material heating system, thermal energy derived from the second fluid to a raw material to produce an activated material.
