Projects using novel, non-lithium battery technology have been progressed by organic flow battery firm CMBlu, liquid metal battery firm Ambri, and the NAS battery division of NGK Insulators.
Nickel-hydrogen-based battery storage company EnerVenue has struck a supply MOU of up to 420MWh while liquid metal battery company Ambri is expanding its new facility in Massachusetts, US.
NEC will be using so-called ‘liquid metal’ batteries produced by Ambri in projects that could require more than four hours’ duration of energy storage, the company announced at SPI / ESI this week.
