Energy partners driving new hydrogen battery tech from lab to market
Italian energy firm Green Energy Storage (GES) has partnered with RINA Consulting (RINA) to bring to market a new type of battery based on a hybrid hydrogen/liquid technology that could be more efficient than conventional flow batteries.
The technology uses a manganese-based electrolyte, which the partners say is non-toxic, recyclable, and has a low environmental footprint compared with traditional materials.
By combining hydrogen production and reabsorption in a closed cycle, the battery does not need external tanks. This could make the technology more modular and expandable up to the megawatt scale.
