Energy Storage Electrolytes

Reliably delivering high-purity zinc bromide for batteries and energy storage. 

One of the more disruptive technologies now impacting the energy storage industry is the rechargeable zinc-bromine battery. Though invented in the 1970s, the technology is undergoing renewed development and commercialization amid the accelerating pace of transition to renewables and energy storage.

The benefits of the zinc-bromine battery are its exceptionally long life and higher energy density, typically 3–4 times that of lead-acid batteries. When properly maintained, the battery cycles through charging and discharging with minimal degradation. By contrast, the more common lead-acid batteries used in most petrol-powered automobiles and lithium-ion batteries used in everything from smartphones to electric vehicles have a more limited lifespan due to the destructive effect of their charge-discharge cycles.
