Focusing on the "dual carbon" goals, advancing full-chain technologies for long-duration energy storage 

The laboratory focuses on the dual carbon goals and the needs of building a new power system, conducting comprehensive research across the entire chain of long-duration flow battery energy storage technology. It has established a complete disciplinary framework encompassing fundamental research, key technologies, system integration, and engineering applications. With strengths in full-chain, multi-pathway system development, scenario-driven innovation addressing national strategic demands, and integrated capabilities combining mechanistic modeling with intelligent systems for frontier exploration, it will provide strong support for Beijing's goal to become a global hub for energy storage scientific and technological innovation. 

The laboratory will plan and build a full-chain R&D and testing center covering "materials—stacks—modules—systems," aiming to establish an internationally leading open and shared platform. It will attract interdisciplinary talent, cultivate innovative teams with global influence, and strive to secure more than five national-level talent projects. Meanwhile, it will deepen collaboration among partner institutions, building a coordinated innovation system integrating "basic research—engineering transformation—application validation." The lab will actively expand international cooperation, strengthen exchanges with universities such as the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro and the University of Macau, and promote the global advancement of China's flow battery technologies and standards. Aligned with the "dual carbon" strategy, it will provide large-capacity, long-duration energy storage solutions for applications such as zero-carbon development in oil and gas fields. 

As a chain leader enterprise for low-cost flow batteries recognized by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, China Sea Energy Storage leverages its fully self-developed iron-chromium flow battery core technology system, the world's first digital smart factory, and extensive experience in delivering multiple megawatt-scale projects. The company is focusing on large-scale mass production of stacks and systems, engineering applications, and commercialization, effectively bridging the "last mile" from technology to industry. It supports the laboratory in establishing a leading domestic and world-class R&D and application platform for flow battery energy storage, providing replicable and scalable engineering solutions for new power grid development and green computing infrastructure. 

Technology and industry mutually empower each other to build a closed-loop innovation system. 

As a co-builder and technology transfer platform of the laboratory, China Sea Energy Storage has achieved deep integration and mutual empowerment with the lab. Leveraging the laboratory's high-quality scientific resources and technical support, it shares national-level platforms such as the National Key Laboratory for Heavy Oil and the National Innovation Platform for Energy Storage Technology Integration of Industry and Education. By pooling the expertise of academician-led teams, it continuously advances key technologies including core materials and high-power stacks. 

With its comprehensive intelligent manufacturing capabilities, China Sea Energy Storage has leveraged the national trend of mutual empowerment between artificial intelligence and new energy storage technologies. In collaboration with the Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory and China University of Petroleum (Beijing), the company has jointly developed a "molecule-to-grid industrial intelligence system." By integrating AI with energy storage technology, it significantly shortens R&D cycles and enhances power plant operational performance. The company has successively overcome key commercialization challenges for iron-chromium flow batteries—including hydrogen evolution, energy consumption, and cost—achieving top-tier efficiency in technology transformation. To date, the company has achieved full domestic production across the entire supply chain, including electrodes, membranes, electrolytes, and stacks. It has built China's first fully digital smart factory for iron-chromium flow batteries and the world’s first intelligent manufacturing line for this technology. The facility provides laboratories with production space, pilot-scale lines, testing equipment, and other hardware support, accelerating the industrialization of scientific research outcomes. 

This dual-enabling model will significantly accelerate the engineering validation and large-scale deployment of cutting-edge laboratory technologies, connecting the entire chain from scientific innovation to industrial application, and establishing a closed-loop innovation system that integrates "scientific breakthroughs—engineering validation—application feedback." 

Positioned in Beijing's innovation and technology hub, building a national-level strategic support point for energy storage 

As a leading enterprise in the long-duration flow battery energy storage sector and a key player in Beijing's Future Science City advanced energy development, China Sea Energy Storage is headquartered in Beijing and has established a strategic layout of "one core, one north, one central, and one south" across Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Henan, and Guangdong. By jointly establishing a Beijing Key Laboratory with universities and research institutes, the company further strengthens its strategic position as a vital supporter of Beijing's technological innovation hub. 

Leveraging Beijing's technological innovation advantages and national-level innovation platforms, China Sea Energy Storage has successfully implemented multiple landmark projects: the Zhangjiakou Huailai Cloud Data Center, the Shengshi Group project in Huiyang, Guangdong, and the State Power Investment Corporation Industrial Park in Lankao, Henan. The company is also constructing the world's largest 50MW/300MWh iron-chromium flow battery independent energy storage power station in the Greater Bay Area, and has deployed grid-forming independent energy storage stations across multiple regions. These engineering practices have thoroughly validated the reliability of core materials, stacks, and system integration technologies, while providing detailed field data and practical feedback to continuously refine and optimize technical development directions in the laboratory. 

Looking ahead, China Sea Energy Storage will leverage its laboratory as a bridge to deepen collaboration with universities, research institutes, and industry partners. Grounded in the development trends of the new energy sector, we will focus on key technologies such as energy storage system integration, safety control, and intelligent operation and maintenance. We will continuously increase R&D investment, refine product performance, address industry technical challenges, and further enhance the product advantages of iron-chromium flow batteries—strong safety, low cost, large-scale capacity, long lifespan, high efficiency, and broad applicability. With high-quality, high-tech, and highly reliable energy storage products, we aim to deliver safe, efficient, intelligent, and dependable one-stop energy storage solutions. We will lead the iron-chromium flow battery industry toward standardization, scale-up, and intelligence, support laboratories in building a high-end platform integrating talent cultivation, technological innovation, and industrial application, solidify China's global leadership in long-duration energy storage technology, and contribute China Sea's strength to achieving the nation's "dual carbon" goals.
