Bibra Lake, Western Australia
AFB’s core technology is Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries (VRFBs), offering benefits over lithium-ion batteries for long-duration energy storage. VRFBs have extended operational life with unlimited charge/discharge cycles and minimal capacity degradation, ensuring service lifetimes exceeding 20 years. They are low fire risk, non-toxic, recyclable, and scalable from small commercial to multi-megawatt utility-scale installations. Their VRFB systems are optimized for challenging Australian conditions for durability and performance.
AFB offers VRFB systems that can be rapidly deployed, are easy to operate, and scalable to various sizes. Products include hybrid diesel replacement systems used in remote and defense sectors, disaster response units with integrated water purification, and utility-scale grid storage systems.
Notable projects include showcasing a complete integrated VRFB system at the Australian Automation and Robotics Precinct (AARP), feasibility studies for a megawatt-scale VRFB manufacturing facility in Western Australia, deployments of hybrid diesel replacement systems in remote and defense sectors, disaster response units with water purification, and utility-scale grid storage installations.
In March 2025, Australian Flow Batteries completed a $3.0M funding round led by Trident Capital; individual investor details were not publicly disclosed as of June 2025.
