Columbia Falls Based ViZn Energy Systems Wins Contract for Flow Battery System from Idaho National Laboratory

Research shows roughly 56 percent of all energy generated in the U.S. is wasted, leading to billions of dollars of lost potential largely because there has not been an efficient way to store output that is not immediately used.

ViZn Energy Systems Inc. (ViZn) http://www.viznenergy.com/ , a leading provider of energy storage systems for microgrid and utility applications, announced that it has received an order for a 128 kW/320 kWh redox flow battery system based on its zinc-iron chemistry from Idaho National Laboratory (INL), part of the Department of Energy’s (DOE) complex of national laboratories. ViZn’s flow battery system will be installed as part of a microgrid research, development and demonstration testbed and is expected to be commissioned in the second quarter of 2016.

INL https://www.inl.gov/ is part of DOE’s complex of national laboratories. The 890-square-mile complex in the high desert of eastern Idaho laboratory performs work in each of DOE’s strategic goal areas: energy, national security, science and environment. INL is the nation’s leading center for nuclear energy research and development.
