We are so excited to have been selected for TWO vouchers from the ENERGYWERX DOE program. These vouchers will help us push our company forward. Thanks for the DOE for putting together this program to help small businesses in the #energystorage industry.

As data centres expand to meet the rising demands of AI and cloud services, the energy grid needs to provide additional clean, reliable power and meet #decarbonisation goals. Currently, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google account for 9 GW of capacity in the U.S., with demand projected to nearly triple to 28 GW by 2028. Increasing the need to integrate more #renewable energy to meet this need A recent article from Trellis Group, sponsored by member Hydrostor, highlights the urgent need for long duration energy storage technologies that can reliably store energy for eight hours or more to support this rapid growth. #LDES solutions, such as Hydrostor's Advanced Compressed Air Energy Storage, which incorporates components from traditional mining and gas operations, ensure operational resilience for data centres and play a pivotal role in building a #sustainable clean energy future. The #Time4Action is now to ensure #3xRenewables by 2030. To learn more, click below:

What's the missing link between renewable generation and 24/7 carbon free energy?? ? Flexibility. To provide low cost, low carbon energy for all, intermittent solar and wind power will need to be stored and released at an unprecedented scale. As we move toward the fully flexible dispatch of renewable energy, batteries will be called on more often and for longer durations. Technologies such as flow batteries provide this flexibility and are helping to deliver 24/7 carbon free energy.? ? Flow batteries are fueling the next stage of the clean energy transition which are currently being deployed globally in standalone applications and in line with renewable generation.?

Batteries are crucial to the global clean energy transition International Energy Agency's (IEA) latest report highlights just how pivotal battery storage is in the energy transition. As renewable energy expands, batteries are more than just a tool — they are vital to grid stability and meeting global energy goals. The report underscores several critical aspects that align closely with Australian Flow Batteries’ (AFB's) mission: - Batteries must scale rapidly to meet global energy goals. Battery storage needs to increase 14-fold by 2030 to 1,200 GW globally, with batteries accounting for 90% of the required energy storage increase. - Cost reduction is key. The IEA notes that battery prices have dropped by 90% in the past 15 years. - Battery supply chains need diversification. With current battery manufacturing and mineral sourcing concentrated in a few countries, the world needs new solutions. - Utility-scale batteries are critical. The IEA highlights the increasing competitiveness of batteries paired with renewable energy. - Batteries play a direct role in reducing close to 20% of the CO2 emissions needed by 2030, with an additional 40% reduction through the support of broader clean electrification efforts. At AFB, we're proud to be at the forefront of this energy transition with our innovative Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) technology. Our solutions are perfectly positioned to meet the growing demand for safe, long-lasting, and scalable energy storage. AFB is expanding our production capacity and product range to capitalise on this booming market. From residential systems to industrial-scale solutions and diesel replacement programs, we're committed to empowering Australia's renewable energy transition. Exciting times ahead for clean energy!
