AVL’s Wholly Owned Subsidiary VSUN Energy Has Sold a Vanadium Redox Flow Battery
Australian Energy Storage Alliance
AVL’s wholly owned subsidiary, VSUN Energy Pty Ltd, has secured an order for a 20kW/80kWh vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) which will go to an apple orchard in Pakenham, Victoria. The sale confirms AVL’s and VSUN Energy’s promotion of VRFB technology for agriculture, based on the battery’s long duration and inherent safety – it is not flammable and cannot explode.
AVL Managing Director Vincent Algar said: “Having this Australian invention working consistently on a daily basis for the next 20-plus years at the orchard shows that there is a growing recognition of the role that VRFBs can play in the energy storage sector.”
