BASF and JenaBatteries Cooperate on Power Storage Technology

JenaBatteries GmbH and BASF are cooperating in the production of an electrolyte for a battery technology that is particularly suitable for stationary storage of electricity from renewable energy sources and for stabilizing conventional transmission grids.

Jena Batteries GmbH

JenaBatteries is a spin-off from the University of Jena in Germany. They have developed an aqueous-based redox flow technology with redox-active polymers, called by the company: Metal-free redox flow battery. The technology developed can be classified as Organic Redox Flow Battery (ORFB).

Energy Storage Innovations Europe 2017

The field of battery energy storage is set to grow significantly over the coming years. The question that incumbents, raw materials suppliers, end users, and innovators are all asking themselves is whether Li-ion batteries will keep the lion's share of the market, or whether disruptive innovation will drive technology diversification according to applications.

Innovative redox-flow battery based on organic polymers and water

Sun and wind are important sources of renewable energy, but they suffer from natural fluctuations: In stormy weather or bright sunshine electricity produced exceeds demand, whereas clouds or a lull in the wind inevitably cause a power shortage.
