A firm in China has announced the successful completion of world''s largest vanadium flow battery project – a 175 megawatt (MW) / 700 megawatt-hour (MWh) energy storage system.
Technological Advancements in Energy Storage Vanadium flow batteries are currently the most technologically mature flow battery system. Unlike lithium-ion batteries,
Energy storage addresses the intermittence of renewable energy and realizes grid stability. Therefore, the cost-effectiveness of energy storage systems is of vital importance,
The technology has not yet been deployed in Singapore and the trial will evaluate the performance of batteries in local climate. Meanwhile, VFlowTech is studying the potential for locating EES underground, which minimises the land required. This study will also test the use of a lithium-ion (LI) and vanadium-flow (VF) hybrid battery system.
“Jurong Island, with its varied industrial loads and planned renewable resources is a prime candidate to testbed smart grid operations and energy management. We welcome Advario’s and VFlowTech’s interest to scale up their battery energy storage system.”
While that expansion across new markets including Asia and the Middle East is a stated focus, VFlowTech also emphasised the role its technology, particularly in conjunction with its cloud-based energy management platform, could play within Singapore’s energy system.
Flow batteries are also thought to present a much lesser fire risk than lithium batteries, which could be an advantage in urban settings. However, challenges facing the commercialisation of flow batteries and other non-lithium electrochemical technologies are also significant.
The Singapore-headquartered tech company has raised US$20.5 million in its latest funding round, VFlowTech said in a statement sent to Energy-Storage.news this morning. VFlowTech’s modular VRFB product, the Powercube, designed for long-duration energy storage (LDES) applications, comes in two models: 50kW/250kWh and 100kW/500kWh.
“As Singapore expands solar deployment, energy storage systems will become more important to enhance grid resilience and ensure power system stability. I welcome the development of energy storage systems that are safe, cost-effective and space-efficient,” says EMA CEO Puah Kok Keong.
