The vanadium flow battery sector received a boost this week with news of a rental partnership between Invinity and Dawsongroup plc, a new electrolyte plant in Germany and a whitepaper around the technology’s environmental impact.

Vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) firm Invinity Energy Systems has secured a 15MWh order from industrial technology company Everdura in Taiwan, its largest to date.

The US state of California is providing US$31 million for a long duration energy storage project combining vanadium flow and zinc-hybrid batteries, the first grant from a US$380 million package.

Vanadium flow battery company Invinity Energy Systems has sold a 1.3MWh system to Kinetic Solution for a microgrid project serving a data centre in Arizona.

Invinity Energy’s UL1973 safety certification will open up doors for its technology and streamline complex project development steps.

Flow battery companies Redflow and Invinity Energy Systems are targeting the US market through partnerships with third parties.

News in brief from around the world in energy storage, this time from the USA.

Energy-storage.news caught up with executives from two long-duration flow battery energy storage providers, ESS Inc. and Invinity Energy Systems, at the Energy Storage Summit 2022.

Invinity Energy Systems will supply vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) technology to a solar-plus-storage project in Alberta, Canada.

Growth in renewables and corresponding market pricing is the key driver for the commercialisation and global adoption for vanadium flow batteries (VFBs) and an important reason why we will see further growth for this technology over the years to come, says Ed Porter of Invinity Energy Systems.
