Battery #energystorage is fighting #COVID19 headwinds with new market projections - "While installation figures could reach 15.1GW / 47.8GWh, hardware revenues will increase from US$4.2 billion this year to US$9.5 billion in 2025." https://t.co/rV2tmBCsO5
It took 150 firefighters, 30 fire trucks, and 4 days to extinguish a giant Tesla battery pack fire, demonstrating the challenges lithium batteries face

Lithium batteries are not as #sustainable as people think. Did you know that vanadium redox flow batteries decrease costs and lithium INCREASES costs as the batteries get larger? Read more about the other advantages... https://t.co/Xn5lnK2whw
"With life spans reaching up to 30 years, depending on the electrolyte chemistry, flow batteries may provide unrivaled cost certainty versus other emerging storage technologies on the market." #energystorage https://t.co/MOu4JCqr6u
"Unlike conventional batteries, which store the chemicals inside the battery, the capacity of the battery can be sized independently of the power, simply by having larger tanks for the vanadium where the energy is stored." https://t.co/SA4MDbLSJh
@eChemion fuels long duration #energystorage with eC17, an advanced material for improving battery performance and creating a sustainable energy future https://t.co/UFtIalK6pl
"Once complete, the portfolio will supply 25 megawatts of solar power and 80 megawatts of battery capacity...delivering rapid-fire fast frequency grid response." #sustainability#energystorage https://t.co/xvgGCDi4h4
"Wind farms are useless on calm days, and solar panels produce nothing at night. Hence the need to store their energy." #sustainability#energystorage https://t.co/fy90ipcVtu
“The time is now to invest in energy storage – renewables and the growing threat of climate change are going to require energy storage, and lots of it” - Davion Hill

Storage specialist E22 takes Spain online with its #redoxflow system which "can be integrated within a modular block from 250 kW to 330 kW, with a purported product life above 12,000 cycles at full power." Congrats! https://t.co/U6890Mlqp2
"The strong uptake of variable #RenewableEnergy like solar PV and wind has highlighted the need for increased #EnergyStorage and vanadium flow batteries could play a major role in addressing this need" https://t.co/QJgWNzvRz8
"As we see four to six to eight billion [lithium-ion battery] cells going out each year, that one in 12 million [catch on fire], that starts to get up there." Side note, #VRFB redox flow batteries don't catch on fire #TheMoreYouKnow https://t.co/UXw61OzIwK
"All in all, the benefits of #VRFB outweigh those of lithium-ion batteries and we hope to adopt this revolutionary technology to set an environmental standard for the rest of the world." @VanadiumCorp@UMassAmherst#sustainability https://t.co/Ro6iMrORYJ
@BauerKahan writes about tapping into "about 30,000 homes and businesses have a battery energy storage system" to allow utilities "to buy power from a fleet of batteries that is right under their noses" to help prevent blackouts in California

An AVL representative told @energystoragenw that the advantages of a flow battery could include the ability to “store a lot more energy”, while the product is “inherently non-flammable” also, #vanadium electrolyte can be reused at end of life #VRFB https://t.co/2hG0oWJ2sh
