Redflow, a leading innovator in energy storage solutions, has announced a strategic partnership with Stanwell to enhance clean energy storage capabilities in Queensland, Australia. The collaboration centers around the establishment of a local manufacturing facility for Redflow’s X10 battery, aimed at bolstering regional energy resilience and sustainability.
The memorandum of understanding between Redflow and Stanwell includes an initial feasibility study for implementing a 5 MWh energy storage project. This project serves as a pilot to evaluate the performance and scalability of Redflow’s advanced zinc-bromine flow battery technology in Queensland's energy landscape.
Moreover, the partnership outlines plans for a larger-scale 400 MWh energy storage project, contingent upon the success of the initial phase. If realized, this ambitious project could significantly elevate Redflow’s production capabilities and position in the global energy storage market, emphasizing its commitment to scalable, sustainable energy solutions.
Tim Harris, CEO of Redflow, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, highlighting its potential to drive local manufacturing and employment opportunities while advancing Queensland’s transition to renewable energy. He underscored the scalability and environmental benefits of Redflow’s zinc-bromine flow batteries, which are known for their long cycle life, high energy efficiency, and recyclability.
Stanwell Corporation, a major player in Queensland’s energy sector, views the partnership as a strategic move towards integrating innovative storage solutions into its energy portfolio. The collaboration aligns with Stanwell’s commitment to sustainable energy practices and enhancing grid reliability through advanced storage technologies.
