The company’s Z20 160 kWh Zinc Redox Flow Battery offers scalable storage systems for the micro-grid markets and renewable integration.
ViZn Energy Systems president and CEO Craig Wilkins said right now over 50% of all power generated is wasted before it ever gets to the end user
"Storage batteries like our flow battery could help eliminate the billions of dollars of wasted energy each year," Wilkins said.
The company said its patented flow-battery technology breaks the cost/benefit threshold that is currently limiting widespread adoption of storage.
The technology delivers a 1MW /2.5MWh battery system at lower pricing than current competition and reduces fossil fuel carbon emissions.
The company said it is taking orders for the Z20 now with volume manufacturing expected to start in the second quarter of 2014.
