Western Australia is set to see a renewable energy boost with Horizon Power\u2019s purchase of a vanadium redox flow battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vanadium is a metal found in mineral deposits. Currently, there is only one vanadium mining lease granted in Queensland, located in the North West Minerals Province. The Saint Elmo vanadium project began construction in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia\u2019s first commercial vanadium flow battery was completed<\/a> in South Australia in June this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WA vanadium flow battery is expected to arrive in Perth in 2024. Western Australia Energy Minister Bill Johnston said the delivery will help the state lead the way in clean energy technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVanadium redox flow batteries are specifically designed to deliver energy over a long period of time, which is crucial for achieving the high levels of decarbonisation we are after,\u201d Johnston said<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf the pilot is successful, there is potential to expand the use of long-duration, 100 per cent renewable energy across Horizon Power\u2019s 2.3 million square-kilometre network.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 78-kilowatt battery will provide Horizon Power will key learnings around how renewable energy can be integrated into the grid system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Horizon Power has signed an agreement with VSUN Energy, a subsidiary of Australian Vanadium Limited, for the purchase, installation, and commissioning of the vanadium battery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
