💤 Have you ever heard of "hibernation mode" for a battery? For this episode, BioZen's CEO Nate Kirchhofer is joined by Mark Higgins of Redflow (ASX:RFX), a global company founded in Australia in 2005 (IPO 2010) that manufatures Zinc Bromine (Zn-Br) flow batteries. Tune in to learn from Mark just what Redflow's unique battery hibernation entails—not to mention their Zn-Br batteries' advantages in safety, depth of discharge, round trip efficiency, wide operational temperature range, and more. We dive further into Zn-Br use cases, Redflow's cumulative delivery of 3.2 GWh energy to customers through hundreds of systems installed across 10 countries and 5 continents, and forecasts for the next 5 years. Mark has a long history in renewable energy, so he brings a unique perspective as the head North American representative of a global battery manufacturer, giving insight into the true positive impact of the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act on renewable energy project financing and domestic manufacturing objectives—as well as momentum in Li-ion as the incumbent energy storage technology.
