Hunter's comment

Basically, This is a development project by Google in which they are developing an innovative way to store energy which is generated by Solar or Wind Energy because up to 30% energy got wasted because it can't be used when it's produced.

Project Malta is building a grid-scale energy storage technology that stores electricity from renewable energy sources as heat inside large tanks of high temperature molten salt and as cold in large tanks of chilled liquid. source
