Rivus Batteries, which focuses on developing organic flow batteries for large-scale energy storage, has had a busy start to the year. Not only have they expanded their team with highly qualified new recruits, but they also recently won Vinnova's pitch competition during The Tech Arena alongside inspiring start-up peers Proligreen AB and GREEN14 - and were also selected as one of the 'Most Promising Energy Innovators of 2024' of the Free Electrons program!

The Tech Arena aims to advance tech and entrepreneurship and give entrepreneurs the opportunity to showcase their company's products and services in a public arena. The event also aims to highlight Sweden and the Nordics as a breeding ground for innovative, emerging companies that change, improve, and develop their industries on a global level, and serves as a connection platform for entrepreneurs, business leaders, investors, media, politicians and partners.

Free Electrons is a global startup program that connects the world's most promising start-ups with leading energy companies to deliver state-of-the-art solutions and collaborate on the energy of the future.

The Free Electrons program offers a unique opportunity for late-stage startups to access energy company partners that can help them scale up and expand into new markets worldwide. The energy utility partners participating in Free Electrons are leaders in the clean energy transition and span more than 40 countries, with access to over 82 million customers globally, representing over $173 billion in combined revenue.
