Large Scale Storage
The perfect solution for large scale storage needs.
The solution for multi MWh storage projects for utility scale infrastructure. Benefit from the long lifetime and the inherent safety as well as the scalability to create perfectly suited Energy Storage asset.
Technology
The Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) stands for a progressive and innovative flow battery technology.
Different oxidation states of dissolved vanadium ions in the electrolyte store or deliver electric energy.
The electrolyte is continuously fed from a tank system into the reaction cell (also called Stack). Depending on the current demand, energy is stored in the electrolyte (battery charging) or fed into the grid/network (battery discharging).
Areas of Application
Balancing
Real-time battery monitoring and short reaction times allows complex supply/demand balancing as well as efficient ancillary services
E-Mobility
Storing surplus energy from renewables, like PV-Carports or wind turbines, for charging electrical vehicles
Smart-Grid
Intelligent balancing of energy production and consumption as well as enabling the integration of distributed energy generation
Peak Shaving
Electricity prices for industry & commerce are often determined by power peaks. By setting a specific threshold these peaks can be cut, resulting in annual electricity bill savings
Off-Grid
Ensure energy supply from renewables and optimizing the use of diesel generators where the grid is missing
Renewable Integration
Store surplus renewable energy and use it later or secure your operations in case of power outages
