The North Science and Technology Commission has assigned the task of establishing a "Key Laboratory

According to Global Flow Battery Network, on June 10, the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission issued a task assignment notice for the "Beijing Key Laboratory of Long-duration Energy Storage with Flow Batteries" (hereinafter referred to as the Laboratory). Zhonghai Energy Storage Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd. (shortened as Zhonghai Energy Storage), serving as the core co-building enterprise of the laboratory, will jointly undertake the tasks assigned by the Beijing Municipal Science and Technology Commission together with China University of Petroleum (Beijing), CNPC Kunlun Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Beijing University of Technology, and the Beijing Institute of Electrical Engineering and Economics under the Ministry of Machinery Industry. The Laboratory integrates strengths from universities, leading enterprises, and research institutes, establishing a collaborative innovation system centered around academicians and national-level leading talents, featuring deep interdisciplinary integration and seamless integration of industry, academia, research, and application. It focuses on ecological, engineering, and large-scale applications of energy storage technologies, aiming to build a high-end talent development hub and a frontier scientific innovation center in the energy storage field.

Deep Dive: Energy Security Drives Demand for Long-Duration Storage, Drawing Attention to Flow Batter

As demand for intermittent renewable energy sources such as solar photovoltaics grows, energy storage has become crucial for ensuring grid stability. With support from international standards, various energy storage options are receiving increasing attention. Energy supply security is almost the most pressing issue facing countries around the world today. Yet even before the war in Iran, the situation had already become serious as global power generation increasingly shifted from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Oil, natural gas, and coal may be finite resources, but they can be stored in their natural state. In contrast, energy generated by solar and wind systems is virtually limitless, yet due to their intermittency, long-duration energy storage solutions are needed to maintain balance between supply and demand across the entire grid.
