Online Meeting
The UPJS and INO-HUB Energy held an online meeting with Pinflow Energy Storage. PFES is going to be the battery equipment provider, so a close relationship is expected to speed up the purchase process. During this meeting, the specifications for the kW test rig and the lab test rigs were discussed.
KW stack:
40 cells, small crane will be bought to move the stack (weight > 100 kg), hydraulic press and chemical resistant table will be offered.
Components replacements: Membrane and bipolar plates sealings must be replaced once the stack gets open.
Electrolyte: 250 L of Vanadium electrolyte will be provided by Pinflow.
Reference electrodes: They must have replaceable electrolyte.
Training: Pinflow will provide a training session about the stack set up and the software.
The stack will be delivered as soon as possible to start with the experimental results.
