Senior Mechanical Engineer, Unit Cell R&D

Energy storage is the most exciting area in energy today. Massive amounts of energy storage arerequiredif renewable energy is to take its rightful place on the electric alternative to the most common type of battery lithium-ion because the battery technology that works so well in our pocketsdoesntwork as well at the grid scale; it wears out limitsuse andeven catches fire.

Manufactured as a standardized product in a factoryInvinitysvanadium flow batteriesdontdegradewontcatch fire and can beoperatedcontinuously from full charge to full discharge forkilowatt-hours of its modular battery systems in 82 projects across 15 countries - more than any other company in the the largest flow battery systems in the U.S. Canada Australia and the UK and are supported by the UK Infrastructure Bank the U.S. Department of Energy and some of the worlds leading institutional investors.
