Patent granted for using our organic electrolytes in flow batteries!

We’re happy to announce that Rivus Batteries has been granted a strategically important patent broadly protecting the use of the combination of our proprietary organic molecules in flow batteries!

Three additional filings, covering electrolyte deployment and recycling, are also pending and remain under examination. This recent progress strengthens our IP position, protects our technology, and positions us well for the increasingly stringent rules under EU’s Battery Regulation which raises the bar on sustainability, recyclability and recycled-content requirements across the battery life cycle. By securing protection for both the usage of and recycling, we take steps to fulfill requirements for industrial partnerships while meeting upcoming circular-economy targets.

As a spin-off from Chalmers University of Technology, we are also grateful to retain 100 % of the intellectual property within the company. This is common practice in Sweden, but not in many other countries, and has been a key enabler for us to attract private and public capital for further development.

A special thanks to our R&D and IP team and external legal counsel for years of diligent work. Your effort lets the whole team head into the summer on a high note ☀️
