# Feature in GP - one of Sweden's largest newspapers

![GP 2024 Sep 2-1](https://rivus-batteries.com/hs-fs/hubfs/GP%202024%20Sep%202-1.jpg?width=839&height=643&name=GP%202024%20Sep%202-1.jpg)*"In the energy transition, batteries play a crucial role. However, with the mining of critical metals, it is not always a sustainable solution. The startup Rivus Batteries wants to change that."*

Rivus is featured in-depth in Göteborgs-Posten, one of Sweden's largest news papers, shining light on our work to develop truly green, metal-free batteries for large-scale stationary energy storage! Link to full article (in 🇸🇪): [https://www.gp.se/klimat/goteborgsstartup-forst-i-sverige-med-megabatterier.5e8ce0c7-b9c3-4668-ae6d-38be8ec1d1ed](https://www.gp.se/klimat/goteborgsstartup-forst-i-sverige-med-megabatterier.5e8ce0c7-b9c3-4668-ae6d-38be8ec1d1ed)

Some glimpses from the article:

The demand for batteries is extensive in Sweden and globally, as companies and governments shift to sustainable alternatives. Rivus' organic flow batteries use organic molecules instead of critical metals like lithium and vanadium. Their technology has been demonstrated on a small scale and at the end of the year a pilot will be installed at [HSB Living Lab](https://www.linkedin.com/company/hsb-living-lab/) together with [Bengt Dahlgren](https://www.linkedin.com/company/bengt-dahlgren-ab/) AB, a Sweden-based engineering firm with 700 employees.

- "It’s exciting to be part of this project and learn about the new technology. We see potential applications for a range of projects", says Andreas Fränne, energy engineer from [Bengt Dahlgren](https://www.linkedin.com/company/bengt-dahlgren-ab/) AB.

- "There are growing opportunities within large-scale energy storage, where the price pressure is big but where the scalability that flow batteries, of which Rivus’ metal-free batteries are a variant, offers a great advantage", says <https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAPxA3wBHlEALPXdFkQYbjZGi-ouGQEyAEU>[Patrik Johansson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrik-johansson-93818b1a/), Professor in Physics at [Chalmers University of Technology](https://www.linkedin.com/company/chalmers-university-of-technology/).

To bring their solution to the market Rivus' needs to raise additional investments. Despite the ongoing global economic headwinds, Rivus' CEO <https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAA3blc4BvWHTEmo_cI3Rx9NRtpURc8ub7MU>[Cedrik Wiberg](https://www.linkedin.com/in/cedrikw/) is optimistic for the future.

- "We aim to prove to investors that that our batteries have a long lifespan, between 15 and 20 years, and then scale up quickly".
