The world’s largest flow battery has opened, using a newer technology to store power.

The Dalian Flow Battery Energy Storage Peak-shaving Power Station, in Dalian in northeast China, has just been connected to the grid, and will be operating by mid-October.

The vanadium flow battery currently has a capacity of 100 MW/400 MWh, which will eventually be expanded to 200 MW/800 MWh.

According to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, who helped develop the project, it can supply enough electricity to meet the daily demands of 200,000 residents.

Got to be a no brainer to get VRB's up and running in Europe where we have violent price swings over the day and from day,to day and a large portion of windpower in the energy mix. A 400 MWh battery should be able to generate a cash flow of $100k - $200k/day.

What are VRB Energy & Co. Waiting for? Europe/The world is in need of VRFB more than ever. In April VRB Energy got certification for extreme cold weather. In May they got their GEN 3 certification. In June Ivanhoe Electric who owns 90% of VRB Energy was listed. -What is next? A cluster of big orders and an IPO?
