VoltStorage

Thank you to WirtschaftsWoche and stefan hajek for this insightful article on the current state of energy storage and large-scale batteries - specifically flow batteries - and how they can contribute to make the energy transition a success. And also a big thank you to our John Alper for providing insights and information. The energy transition holds enormous potential to advance sustainability and future-proof our energy systems through technical innovation, impacting not only energy supply but also our industrial competitiveness and market attractiveness in general. At VoltStorage, we are committed to driving this by bringing the #IronSaltBattery, a breakthrough solution for long-duration energy storage (#LDES), into the market. This technology enables the sustainable and cost-effective storage of renewable energy for up to 100 hours, while being scalable and having a minimal carbon footprint due to its eco-friendly raw materials. Our researchers, developers, and engineers are united by the common goal of making the renewable energy grid a reality. The article highlights how many companies are embracing the challenges of the energy transition as opportunities for innovation—and they are right to do so. Together, we can drive the transformation towards a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. ➡ See the full article here (in German): https://lnkd.in/dzfUw7ws  ➡ More about the VoltStorage Iron Salt Battery: https://lnkd.in/em8sK59n 

Having just spoken at #ESGC2024 organized by EASE - The European Association for Storage of Energy, our Michael Peither is full of enthusiasm about the positive spirit that can be observed within the industry and the market. Renewable energies and specifically Long Duration Energy Storage LDES are undoubtedly on the rise. Yet, there still is a high need for funding and investments to realize the energy transition, leveraging the possibilities of a new energy infrastructure. Additional advocacy is given by International Energy Agency (IEA)´s latest #WorldEnergyOutlook2024 report urging for more clean energy investments and the upcoming COP29 Azerbaijan #GlobalEnergyStorageAndGridsPledge, emphasizing the need for a more robust infrastructure, including LDES solutions, to ensure grid reliability and resilience. At VoltStorage, we are bound to make baseload and a grid fed by renewables a reality with our revolutionary #IronSaltBattery technology, which we are currently setting up for commercialisation. It will not only bring ecological and economic benefits, but also energy security and autarky.  ➡ See how we want to tackle the challenges of the energy transition: https://lnkd.in/dTh4UwUn  ➡ Learn more about the Iron Salt Battery: https://lnkd.in/duSme9Sc

This report should be the new benchmark for our future industry direction. More investment in clean energy, energy storage, and batteries as an instrumental part of a holistic infrastructure transformation!  Not only a must-read, but also a must-act-on-it!

Tackling the Energy Transition with Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) As wind and solar energy continue to grow, making renewable energy sources baseload-capable is one of the biggest challenges we face. In grids powered by over 60% renewables, reliable energy storage systems for durations between 12 and 100 hours are essential to ensure a stable, resilient energy supply. At @VoltStorage, we are addressing this need with our Iron Salt Battery – a revolutionary, scalable, and sustainable solution for storing wind and solar energy at low cost. But the key obstacle remains: the "missing money" problem. While the technology exists to power the future, insufficient investments and funding are delaying the widespread adoption of LDES technologies like ours. To accelerate the energy transition, it's crucial that financial backing keeps pace with technological innovation. Join our Michael Peither and other industry leaders at the Energy Storage Global Conference (#ESGC2024) in Brussels on October 16, where they’ll be discussing how we can close the funding gap and unlock the full potential of LDES to power a renewable energy future.

Now this is some very insightful Friday / Weekend reading! A big thanks to Ember for putting this together. We are proud to see ourselves as being part of the solutions highlighted here with our Iron Salt Battery, targeted for LDES applications 🔋 🔌 https://lnkd.in/em8sK59n

Speaking about Renewable Energy Storage! We are glad to send our Michael Peither to the Energy Storage Global Conference (#ESCG2024) in Brussels next week. Along with other voices from the energy industry he will be addressing one of the key aspects of the energy transition: Longer Duration Energy Storage technologies are expected to grow dramatically in the next years. But concerns on the business case remain – so, what tools are there to properly remunerate such solutions?
