About
Australian Flow Batteries (AFB), founded in 2022, is a Western Australia-based company at the forefront of sustainable energy storage solutions. AFB is revolutionising the energy storage landscape with its cutting-edge Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) technology. As the world transitions to renewable energy sources, AFB’s innovative solutions are poised to play a pivotal role in addressing the challenges of intermittent power generation and grid stabilisation. By harnessing the unique properties of vanadium, AFB offers a safer, more sustainable, and highly scalable alternative to traditional lithium-ion batteries.
Advantage of Vanadium Batteries
Reliable and Long-Lasting
VRFBs boast an impressive 20-year lifespan, capable of maintaining over 20,000 charge/discharge cycles without significant degradation. This long-term durability makes them an ideal choice for applications requiring consistent, reliable energy storage.
Safe
The electrolyte used in VRFBs is non-flammable and has low toxicity, significantly reducing the risk of fire or environmental hazards. Additionally, the vanadium electrolyte can be easily reused or recycled at the end of the battery’s life, promoting a circular economy.
Scalable and Flexible
VRFBs are highly scalable, with their capacity determined by the size of the electrolyte storage tanks. This modular design allows for customisation based on specific energy storage requirements, from residential to large-scale commercial and industrial applications.
