With funding from the European Innovation Council and five paying partners drawn from the energy, housing, and commercial building sectors, AQUABATTERY last November launched a pilot in Delft, testing the largest and most advanced saltwater flow battery ever built in Europe.
Long duration energy storage (LDES) is key to achieving the EU's 2030 energy and climate goals by enabling the integration of renewable energy sources like wind and solar into the grid, explains Jiajun Cen, co-founder and CEO of AQUABATTERY – the company behind the saltwater battery pilot. LDES.
AQUABATTERY is an acid-base flow battery based on reversible water dissociation, developed in the Netherlands. The battery stores electricity in the form of chemical energy in acid, base and saltwater solutions, which are kept in separate tanks. Pumps circulate these fluids through a power stack.
This modest looking set-up is a flow battery that can store wind and solar energy for up to weeks at a time, using only table salt and water. Support CleanTechnica's work through a Substack subscription or on Stripe. Back in the early 2000’s, low cost natural gas began to chase coal out of the US.
With the increase in variable renewable energy (solar and wind power) penetration globally, long-duration energy storage (LDES) solutions such as flow battery technology will be essential in meeting the decarbonization goals, grid efficiency, and reliability needs. Also known as redox.
We believe in the future of green flow batteries and energy storage in molecules, such as hydrogen-based storage. Products will be available soon. This piece of International Business 101 may be more relevant than ever. It doesn’t make sense to send large green batteries across the seas to Europe.
