You wouldn't think it but this battery enables
Our technology is based on a simple idea: In order to meet the
challenges of the world’s growing energy needs
and increase the use of
renewable power, we need large-scale energy storage systems that are
high performance, safe, sustainable and cost-effective.
Our founder, Professor Jay Whitacre, set out to solve this problem and
discovered a simple and elegant solution that is a twist on a 200
year-old technology: saltwater batteries. Aquion developed this solution
into our patented Aqueous Hybrid Ion (AHI™) chemistry, a unique
saltwater electrolyte battery technology. Using abundant, nontoxic
materials and modern low cost manufacturing techniques, our AHI
batteries are now ready to take on the global energy storage challenge.
Unmatched Performance
Aquion’s
battery technology offers thousands of real-use application cycles for
long duration (4 to 20 hour) applications. The batteries are extremely
tolerant to abuse with the ability to stand at a partial state of charge
with minimal degradation. The system requires no costly thermal
management or regular maintenance and contains no hazardous materials,
corrosive acids, or noxious fumes.
Enabling New Possibilities
Aquion’s
AHI batteries are the much-needed solution for stationary,
long-duration, daily cycling applications. Designed to meet the needs of
existing and emerging storage applications, AHI batteries enable new
possibilities for off-grid, microgrid, energy management, and grid
service applications.
