Electrified Thermal Expands European Presence with Paris-Based Business Development Lead

Hire follows the opening of the company's Amsterdam office and deepens its commitment to the European industrial heat market

BOSTON, Nov. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Electrified Thermal Solutions, a leader in electric heating and thermal energy storage for industry, announced the hiring of Romain Krawczyk as Business Development Lead for France. Krawczyk will be based in Paris, building on the company's recent opening of an Amsterdam office and its broader push to serve industrial manufacturers across the continent.

Europe presents a strong near-term opportunity for Electrified Thermal's technology. Rising renewable penetration has increased the frequency of low and negative electricity pricing across the continent, while regional carbon pricing adds further pressure on manufacturers to move away from fossil fuels for process heat. In countries including Germany, Spain, and France, the Joule Hive™ Thermal Battery can also earn ancillary service fees from the transmission operator for supporting the electrical grid, improving its economics alongside existing carbon costs. These conditions position European industry to lead the global transition to electrified heat.

Krawczyk joins Electrified Thermal from InnoEnergy, Europe's most active energy transition investor with more than 160 portfolio companies, where he served as Business Development Director France. In that role, he helped deep tech startups scale their commercial efforts across France and Europe.

"I'm delighted to join Electrified Thermal Solutions at such a crucial and exciting moment," said Krawczyk. "I truly believe in this technology to decarbonize one of the hardest segments to electrify: industrial heat. It's exactly the kind of innovation European industry needs, and I look forward to building smart partnerships with industrial clients alongside the team."

"Romain's experience helping deep tech companies scale across Europe makes him the right person to lead our commercial growth in France," said Dan Stack, Co-Founder and CEO of Electrified Thermal Solutions. "As we grow our presence in Amsterdam and now Paris, we are building the team we need to bring the Joule Hive™ Thermal Battery to European manufacturers ready to lower costs and reduce emissions from their heat processes."
