Background
In recent years, the global Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) industry has experienced rapid development.
In China, the 100MW VRFB energy storage peak shaving power station connected to the grid in 2022; the production capacity of VRFB projects planned In 2023 exceeded 32GW per year; In the first half of 2024, the production capacity of new VRFB projects exceeds 6GW per year, and the new energy storage projects are about 1000MW/5000MWh. It is expected that the grid connected scale of VRFB energy storage will exceed 600MW in 2024. Overseas, Sumitomo Electric's 17MW/51MWh VRFB project in Hokkaido, Japan was put into operation in 2022; Invinity’s 8.4 MWhVRFBproject in Alberta, Canada was put into operation in 2023; In March 2024, Largo announced the promotion of its VRFB business, bringing innovation and scalability to the North American VRFB market.What new changes will there be in global energy storage industry policies in future? What are the new opportunities for investment in VRFB energy storage projects? In the face of competition from new energy storage technologies such as lithium-ion battery and sodium-ion battery, how can the VRFB industry develop to occupy more market share? How to further reduce costs and increase efficiency under the high cost pressure of VRFB? How can enterprises in the industrial chain deepen cooperation to achieve symbiotic development? What opportunities does the growth of the flow battery industry bring to the capital market?The China International Vanadium Flow Battery Energy Storage Conference 2024 will be held in Hefei, Anhui from November 20th to 22nd, 2024. The conference will be held by Asiachem, will explore energy storage industry policies and markets, VRFB technology and processes, cost control of VRFB, VRFB electrolyte, stack and its key materials, investment and financing, and organize a visit to VRFB Production Base of Shanghai Electric Energy Storage Technology Co., Ltd. in Hefei.
