Invinity’s New Flow Battery Aimed At Enabling ’24/7 Solar’ For The Grid
The title of this post, is the same as that of this article on Solar Power Portal.
These three paragraphs outline the story.
New vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) technology from Invinity Energy Systems makes it possible for renewables to replace conventional generation on the grid 24/7, the company has claimed.
Anglo-American flow battery company Invinity launched its new product, Endurium, today. It follows around three years of R&D, testing, and prototyping, during which Invinity has partnered with Siemens Gamesa on technology development.
Designed for high energy throughput with unlimited cycling and with at least a 50% reduction in the footprint required for installation at project sites, the company said it could cost-competitively tackle present-day energy storage markets and emerging long-duration energy storage (LDES) opportunities alike.
This looks like it could be a bit of a breakthrough.
After reading this article, it would appear that traditional lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS) now have another competitor along with Highview Power’s liquid air battery.
