Redox One: Pioneering Long Duration Energy
Redox One''s innovative Iron-Chromium Redox Flow Batteries (Fe-Cr RFBs) deliver a safe, sustainable, and economically viable solution to meet the
ESS EW iron flow battery storage containers. Courtesy of ESS Iron flow batteries, also known as iron-air batteries or iron-redox flow batteries, are energy storage technology that stores electrical energy in chemical form.
Form has demonstrated that iron-air batteries can be built at one-tenth the cost of lithium-ion batteries, largely because the primary materials used to make them are cheap and abundant. That low cost could make it feasible for utilities to use the batteries for long-duration scenarios, storing energy for up to 100 hours.
Iron flow batteries pose no risk of thermal runaway and can maintain peak efficiency without AC or any other cooling systems required. As certified by ETL, our battery modules conform to Underwriters Laboratories' (UL) 9540A, 1973, and 9540 standards, affirming their safety and environmental performance for outdoor and indoor installations.
Lithium-ion batteries—which dominate the battery market—aren't a great solution since they are expensive, have less storage capacity, and may have a shorter lifespan than iron-air batteries. Today, fossil fuels are often burned to compensate for gaps in production, exacerbating climate change.
