AVL signs MOU to supply a remote renewable energy system in WA
The Pick
Australian Vanadium Limited subsidiary VSUN Energy Pty Ltd has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the potential installation of a vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) and solar PV system in a school in Western Australia’s remote outback.
The MOU has been signed with the Nomads Charitable & Education Foundation and is for a period of 12 months with VSUN Energy applying for a grant from the WA State Government to fund the installation of a solar photovoltaic (PV) and VRFB solution at the Strelley Community School in the Pilbara region on behalf of Nomads.

PV Magazine
A Victorian apple orchard will expand its PV fleet to 160 kW and add a 20kW/80kWh vanadium redox flow battery as it seeks to increase its renewable energy consumption. The battery system was sold to family owned and operated business Priest Bros by ASX-listed company Australian Vanadium Limited , through its battery subsidiary VSUN Energy.
The battery system will provide a minimum of four hours of stored solar energy. It will be installed together with a 100 kW PV array by VSUN, in collaboration with renewable systems provider Profit Share Power.

Batteries Going with the Flow
Australian Energy Council
Australia is one of the fastest growing energy storage markets in the world with the most mature storage technologies being pumped hydro and lithium-ion batteries. But other technologies have been developing in the background – such as flow batteries – which provide opportunities in larger scale applications.
With technology born out of the University of New South Wales, VSUN Energy also offers Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries, which use a circulating electrolyte solution of vanadium pentoxide to store the charge in tanks.
