4 FAQs about Slovakia ESS all-iron flow battery

What is the ESS iron flow battery?

The ESS iron flow battery uses the same electrolyte on both positive and negative sides. And the proton pump maintains the state of charge and battery health. While competing non-lithium technologies are still in the lab, our advanced LDES technology is field-proven and already deployed worldwide.

Should ESS invest in iron redox flow batteries?

Flow batteries are a strong contender to provide storage capacity, and when that inflection point is reached, ESS and its investors look well-positioned to benefit given iron redox flow batteries advantages over vanadium and lithium-ion.

Will ESS deliver a 1 mW 10 MWh iron flow battery?

The company has already delivered a 1 MW/10 MWh iron flow battery to a site next to Stanwell Power Station, in a deal with Queensland's state-owned energy generation business Stanwell Corp. Closer to home, ESS Inc. has a partnership with global conglomerate Honeywell.

Are ESS flow batteries scalable?

Fortunately, one of the advantages of ESS's flow batteries is their scalability. The company confirmed that ESS delivered six Energy Center products—large, bespoke battery modules for utility-scale customers—in the fourth quarter of 2024; more will be delivered in the first quarter of 2025.
