VRFB energy storage project financing options in France 2026

What is a 5MWh VRFB?

A 5MWh VRFB sits at the Energy Superhub project in Oxford, UK, supplied by Invinity Energy Systems for project owner EDF. The Superhub is also notable in that it features both VRFB and lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery technologies at the same site, designed as a ‘hybrid’ for each to perform different, complementary applications.

Is VRFB based in China?

While the majority of large VRFB sites and supply chain activities are on-going in China, there is significant non-China based activity. In some instances, such as the number of VRFB OEMs and smaller systems, activity is greater outside of China. Nearly every region of the world is seeing activities by VRFB companies and the supply chain.

Why is the VRFB supply chain important?

Nearly every region of the world is seeing activities by VRFB companies and the supply chain. The number of activities along the supply chain is increasing, which is important to allow for start up battery companies to deliver more and larger VRFBs. Plus, multiple established companies are entering the VRFB industry and its supply chain.

Who makes VRFBs in South Africa?

Local manufacturer Delectrik has delivered VRFBs locally and started to deliver for export, as well. Bushveld Energy achieved financial close and started construction on a minigrid featuring 3.5MW of solar PV and a 4MWh VRFB from CellCube. The minigrid is an IPP that sells energy to a mine. The VRFB used vanadium mined by Bushveld in South Africa.

Which companies sell VRFBs in ?

Arbonia, a listed Swiss company with ~6,500 employees active in the areas of indoor climate control and interior doors, started selling VRFBs in . Invinity will supply an 8.4MWh VRFB to a solar-plus-storage project in Alberta, Canada. It will be paired with a 21MW solar PV plant. Sumitomo installed a 51MWh VRFB in Hokkaido.

Where is a VRFB battery installed?

The 1.1MW/5.5MWh flow battery has been installed at Enel Green Power Espana’s 3.34MWp Son Orlandis solar PV plant in the Mallorcan municipality of Palma. The VRFB was provided by Largo Clean Energy, the recently established downstream arm of primary vanadium producer Largo Resources.
