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.

Hithium has announced its lithium-ion and sodium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) for supporting data centres, while Storion Energy has secured its first vanadium electrolyte customer.

ESN Premium grills Matt Harper of Invinity Energy Systems on the flow battery company’s new partnership with China’s UESNT.

Two US-headquartered solar and sustainability-focused investors have launched GSSG Chikuden, a utility-scale battery storage developer, in Japan.

Invinity Energy Systems believes partnering with a Chinese materials and manufacturing company will enable significant cost reduction of its vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) technology.

Flow battery developer XL Batteries has partnered with data centre developer Prometheus Hyperscale to deploy its batteries on-site at data centres.

Vanadium redox flow battery company VFlowTech has raised investment towards manufacturing, expansion and enhancement of digital capabilities.

ESN Premium speaks with Travis Torrey, CTO of Storion Energy on tariffs, vanadium supply chains and costs.

Flow battery developer XL Batteries has commissioned its first organic flow battery through a pilot project with global storage provider Stolthaven Terminals.

We hear from XL Batteries and Quino Energy, ‘organic’ chemistry flow battery technology companies, about how they plan to scale up and reduce costs to compete with lithium-ion.
