Exceptional safety

Water based, pH neutral chemistry means no fire risk, non-corrosive properties and simplified logistics.

Resilient supply chain

Manufactured in just a few reaction steps in standard chemical plants, enabling a European flow battery value chain by replacing only one component: the electrolyte.

Flow battery technology

Rivus’ organic electrolytes are drop-in compatible with existing flow battery hardware from European and global flow battery hardware suppliers.

Flow batteries are built for safe and reliable long-duration energy storage. Instead of storing energy inside the battery cell, they store it in liquid electrolytes held in external tanks.

This design makes it easy to scale both capacity and duration, supporting energy storage applications from a few hours to well beyond 12 hours - ideal for balancing renewable power and strengthening grid resilience.

For a resilient energy system

Grid-scale energy storage is urgently needed to store renewable energy and balance our grids. It's not always windy and sunny when we need it to be. Rivus' vision is to add a critical element to Europe's and the global energy transition away from fossil fuels towards predominantly renewable energy - using abundant, local materials.
