The Flow Battery Research Collective is excited to present at FOSDEM this weekend! Come see us in-person or online.

Details are all here.

Track: Energy: Accelerating the Transition through Open Source
Room: H.2214
Day: Sunday
Start: 10:55 (Brussels)
End: 11:15
Video only: h2214
Chat: Join the conversation!

Daniel and Josh will be presenting on our work. Looking forward to connecting with the many cool projects in our devroom and others, as well as hopefully meeting with other @nlnet@nlnet.nl and @ngizero@mastodon.xyz projects!

My opinion article on why we should take a European (rather than national) approach to energy storage on energiepodium.nl.
I look at it from 4 angles: dispatchable power generation, biomethane, hydrogen, and strategic gas storage. In Dutch, for now ;)

Publishing my and @andrew 's list of flow battery companies as a public resource! Over 50 enterprises as of current writing. Trying to loosely keep track of who's doing what with which chemistries.

We encourage a thorough read of newsletter released this eve by District 2 Monterey County Supervisor Glenn Church on the Moss Landing battery fire. https://us21.campaign-archive.com/?u=b91306d327dee38ad97c7fa73&id=937ea505d1

"When I took office two years ago, I accepted several tours of the #Vistra facility, including a tour inside the building that burned. The facility and its safety systems appeared impressive. I was personally given the guarantee that a fire similar to the one that occurred in 2022 at the neighboring PG&E / #Tesla operation could not happen at Vistra. We know that is not true. This disaster is worse.
…
"There has been some great #news reporting on this story, but there have also been some errors. There is a great deal of #misinformation being spread. That is because there are a lot of unknowns. I would urge everyone to doublecheck every source."

Getting the pics for writing the docs on how to assemble our upcoming cell that will be part of an open-source flow battery development kit: (https://fbrc.dev)

What Europe needs to do in the next 10 years:
Create a single #EUarmy and foreign policy by majority
️ A real common energy policy, which, like the CAP, has the goal of energy abundance, backed by #nuclear, #renewables, and #EnergyStorage tech

Just wrote a new blogpost on the progress we've made with our open-source flow battery, check it out and let us know what you think! (ideally in our forum so that we can kickstart our community )
