Sumitomo Electric Develops Advanced Vanadium Redox Flow Battery – Unveiled at Energy Storage North America
Sumitomo Electric is excited to announce the introduction of its advanced vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) at the Energy Storage North America (ESNA) event, taking place at the San Diego Convention Center from February 25 to 27, 2025. This state-of-the-art energy storage system is engineered to improve large-scale energy storage solutions by offering increased longevity, enhanced energy density, and greater cost efficiency.
The new VRFB features several key enhancements:
- 15% Higher Energy Density: The system achieves a 15% increase in energy density, which reduces its physical footprint and contributes to improved space efficiency.
- 30% Cost Reduction: Through optimized system design, improved electrolyte circulation control, and advanced manufacturing processes, the new VRFB lowers overall costs, making it a more economical option for large-scale energy storage projects.
-
Up to 30-Year Operational Life: Thanks to the development of long-lasting materials and proper maintenance, the VRFB boasts an operational lifespan of up to 30 years, enhancing its long-term cost-effectiveness.
At ESNA, attendees will have the chance to explore real-world deployment examples and learn how Sumitomo Electric’s VRFB technology supports Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) applications. We invite you to visit Booth #2649 to discover the product’s capabilities and discuss potential applications with our experts.
Sumitomo Electric plans to begin accepting orders for the new VRFB in 2025. This innovation builds on the company’s decades of experience in vanadium redox flow battery technology, further solidifying its leadership in sustainable energy storage solutions.
Event Details:
- Date: February 25-27, 2025
- Location: San Diego Convention Center
- Booth: #2649
