The new minimum operational record set in Queensland this week is further proof that energy storage is now, more than ever, required to absorb the excess solar or other renewable energy and provide long duration energy storage (4+ hours) to shift the power in to peak time’s providing dispatchable load for the grid.

Redflow’s zinc-based long duration energy storage is the perfect solution to support a renewables grid.

The sunshine state lived up to its name yesterday, with Queensland setting a new minimum operational demand record of 3,096 MW, down from 3,131 MW (October… | 15 comments on LinkedIn

🔋Batteries, and more specifically flow batteries, are now being recognised as playing a crucial role in supporting the NEM in the morning and evening energy peaks.

Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO)’s new report noted a near doubling of battery dispatch during morning and evening peaks, and across all hours.

This trend is set to increase as we move to a renewable grid, and flow batteries are the perfect energy storage solution to mop up the excess solar for use later.

California is at the epicenter of global demand for long-duration storage. This week’s announcement by the California Public Utilities Commission proposes the procurement of over 10 GW of new energy resources (that do not use lithium-ion) including 1 GW of multi-day long-duration energy storage (LDES) and another 1 GW of 12-hour-plus LDES.

Mark Higgins Redflow’s CCO said, “Redflow has a strong track record in delivering behind-the-meter microgrids in California for critical infrastructure which has put us on the radar of those looking at long-duration storage. Our next-generation large-scale product will be ready to offer a highly competitive and perfectly positioned solution for these new ambitious procurement projects. We continue to lay the groundwork for long-term success in California’s enormous front-of-meter market”.

Redflow is pleased to announce that our zinc-bromine energy storage technology has received grant funding approval from the California Energy Commission for US Barona Band of Mission Indians’ 6.6 MWh LDES project.

We look forward to commencing project planning with the Barona Band Project Consortium, which includes Prosper Sustainably, Microgrid Initiatives, and strategic partner Ameresco.

The Barona battery will be Redflow’s fourth multi-megawatt hour project in California involving the CEC as a funding partner and reflects the close partnership we have developed since our first CEC-sponsored project with Anaergia in 2021.
