StorEn Technologies Inc. Builds on Vanadium Flow Battery Tech to Deliver Game-Changing Energy Storage Options

  • StorEn’s batteries deliver superior performances at a lower cost
  • Company’s exclusive vanadium flow battery technology is based on a rechargeable flow battery
  • With its innovative vanadium flow battery tech as a backdrop, the company is in the process of a RegA offering with four different investment tiers

From the first all-vanadium flow battery created almost four decades ago, StorEn Technologies has developed a revolutionary vanadium flow battery technology that has potential to revolutionize the energy-storage space. StorEn’s batteries deliver superior performances at a lower cost; they also fulfill growing market demand for more efficient and cost-effective energy storage (https://ibn.fm/Cw1Z4).

StorEn’s exclusive vanadium flow battery technology is based on a rechargeable flow battery that stores energy using the ability of vanadium to exist in solution in four different oxidation states. The company uses this unique property of vanadium to produce batteries with just one electroactive element instead of two, eliminating the possibility of metal cross-contamination.

The company’s current design was patented in 1986 by the University of New South Wales in Australia, where the first known commercial example of the all-vanadium flow battery was created by Dr. Maria Skyllas-Kazacos and her team. StorEn’s technology has also been influenced by information and research conducted and reported by individuals such as P.A. Pissoort in the 1930s and NASA researchers A. Pelligri and P.M. Spaziante in the 1970s.

StorEn’s batteries have proven ability to discharge fully at 100% without decaying and losing capacity, unlike lithium batteries. To consumers, this means that 100% of the battery’s initial capacity will be available throughout the lifetime of the battery, which is in excess of 25 years. Thus no oversizing is needed and no additional costs will be incurred to compensate from the capacity lost over time.

Maintenance on StorEn batteries is also game changing. Because the battery management system alerts the user when service is needed, consumers no longer need to schedule regular maintenance.  

Finally, because vanadium flow batteries are just seeing development begin, improvements are certain to come. Examples of anticipated advancement could include new components such as new membranes. In addition, as the technology becomes more widespread, cost reductions and economies of scale from higher performance as well as volume manufacturing of batteries and components are likely. 

With its innovative vanadium flow battery tech as a backdrop, the company is in the process of a RegA offering with four different investment tiers; each tier offers a different discount and reward.

With a proprietary product that answers the call for long-lasting, 100% recyclable, safe and affordable energy storage, StorEn is in an ideal position to leverage its disruptive, patent-pending, all-vanadium flow battery technology in a growing market. 

Incubated at the Clean Energy Business Incubator Program (“CEBIP”) within Stony Brook University in New York, StorEn is building upon the strengths of vanadium flow batteries to revolutionize the world of residential and industrial energy storage
