government procurement price of VRFB energy storage in China

What does VRFB stand for?

Xinjiang, China, February 28, -- Sineng Electric has successfully provided a customized energy storage solution for the 75MW/300MWh Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) project in Xinjiang, China, which has been operating reliably since its commissioning.

What is VRFB technology?

The project utilizes VRFB technology, which is known for its scalability, longevity, and safety. Given the unique demands of the VRFB system, Sineng Electric offered a tailored energy storage solution featuring its 1375kW central Power Conversion System (PCS).

How much does VRFB cost?

The Hubei project’s cost for 500MWh of VRFB, along with a combined 1GW of solar PV and wind generation from which it will charge, was cited as around US$1.44 billion. The first phase of Rongke Power’s Dalian project meanwhile was given as RMB1.9 billion (US$298 million) in CNESA’s announcement, equivalent to RMB4.75/Wh (US$0.7/Wh).

How long did it take to build the VRFB project?

The biggest project of its type in the world today, the VRFB project’s planning, design and construction has taken six years. It was connected to the Dalian grid in late May, according to a report this week by the China Energy Storage Alliance (CNESA) industry group.

Will VRB energy build a factory in Hubei?

VRB Energy and its local partners had already built a successful 3MW/12MWh demonstration project in Hubei and a VRFB factory with 1,000MWh annual production capacity could be built at the site at a later date too.

What does China Energy Engineering Corporation's landmark procurement mean for energy storage?

China Energy Engineering Corporation’s landmark procurement signals a shift toward market-driven energy storage, with bids reflecting aggressive cost-cutting and rising industry consolidation.

From the bidding prices of five companies, the average unit price of the all vanadium flow battery energy storage system is about 3.1 yuan/Wh, which is more than twice the cost of the previously opened lithium iron phosphate battery energy storage system (see the end of the article).
