About
The project proposes a smart modular electrochemical platform for stationary energy storage, designed for renewable energy integration, industrial applications and grid-support services.
The concept is based on a modular electrochemical architecture combining circulating aqueous electrolyte, conductive porous materials, replaceable electrodes and an automated monitoring and control system. Key operating parameters such as pH, conductivity, temperature, flow rate, voltage and current can be continuously monitored in order to optimize operating conditions and support long-term system stability.
The modular design is intended to allow power and energy capacity to be scaled by assembling multiple electrochemical cells, from small stationary installations to larger industrial or grid-connected systems. Maintenance can be facilitated through replacement of active components and electrolyte treatment without complete dismantling of the installation.
The project is currently at an early research and feasibility stage. Key parameters still require experimental validation, including electrochemical chemistry, achievable energy density, round-trip efficiency, component lifetime, safety and overall economic viability.
We are looking for industrial and technology partners in electrochemistry, energy storage, advanced materials, process engineering, sensors, power electronics, modelling and prototype development to evaluate the concept, perform technical feasibility studies and potentially establish a co-development pathway toward laboratory validation, demonstration and future industrialization.
