Sumitomo Electric will supply a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) energy storage system to enable grid integration of wind energy in Hokkaido, northern Japan.

James Costello, CEO of EORA Energy, argues that long-duration vanadium redox flow battery storage is critical to Western Australia’s decarbonisation efforts, particularly for remote mining operations.

Eora Energy has officially launched in Australia and is positioning itself as a challenger in the vanadium redox flow battery market.

Recent developments from India’s emerging energy storage sector highlight a broadening of interest in diverse technologies and applications.

Australian Vanadium Limited has secured an exclusive partnership with Sumitomo Electric Industries for the 500MWh Kalgoorlie vanadium BESS.

Technology provider Dalian Rongke Power (Rongke Power) and infrastructure developer China Three Gorges Corporation (CTG) have brought online the world’s first gigawatt-hour-scale flow battery energy storage project.

A Western Australian government initiative to deploy the largest vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) project outside China is a “pivotal moment,” one technology provider has said.

The Western Australian government has launched the first stage of an Expression of Interest (EOI) process for a 50MW/500MWh vanadium flow battery energy storage system (VBESS) in Kalgoorlie.

Green Gravity has signed an agreement with mining company Wollongong Resources to trial its gravitational energy storage in NSW, Australia.

ESN Premium speaks to Matt Harper, president of flow battery company Invinity Energy Systems, about pursuing a competitive advantage in an emerging space.
