Case Study | June 22, 2020
As part of its Innovation Challenge, the New York Power Authority (NYPA) partnered with zinc‑air flow battery developer Zinc8 to install a 100 kW/1 MWh behind‑the‑meter energy storage system at a demonstration site in Western New York State. This demonstration project aims "to accelerate the ... Not part of subscription
Vanadium flow batteries in 2020: Where are they now?
Case Study | August 10, 2020
China is home to the largest flow battery projects in the world. Back in 2016, the Chinese flow battery developer Rongke Power announced it would build a record‑shattering 200 MW/800 MWh flow battery on the Dalian Peninsula, with construction breaking ground in 2018. Similarly, VRB Energy was ... Not part of subscription

Minnesota electricity cooperative Great River Energy is procuring a 1 MW/150 MWh energy storage system from long-duration energy storage developer Form Energy. This represents Form Energy's first commercial application of long-duration energy storage technology, though it's unclear whether the device Great River Energy will install is the aqueous polysulfide-air flow battery system described in 2017. More likely, given the energy storage, this is Form Energy's other technology, an iron-air battery with a replaceable metal electrode. Clients should view this development as an early pilot in long-duration energy storage with a motivated customer and continue to research other technology options to enable similar capabilities.
