The planned installation is expected to have a capacity of up to 1.5 GWh, with the potential to expand to 2.1 GWh, making it one of the largest flow battery projects ever proposed globally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The battery system is intended to support renewable energy integration at the site while also providing grid balancing and stabilisation services. Construction on the wider FlexBase development began in 2025 and is already underway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The project has now entered a multi-year engineering phase scheduled to run through 2026 and 2027. During this period, Invinity is expected to earn engineering-related revenues tied to milestone achievements, with a larger follow-on order for equipment anticipated after completion of the design stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">The agreement further strengthens Invinity\u2019s position in the long-duration energy storage market and builds on its experience delivering large-scale vanadium flow battery systems, including the UK\u2019s largest installation of its kind. The company said the project highlights growing demand for safe, modular and long-life storage technologies capable of supporting energy-intensive digital infrastructure and renewable power networks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Invinity\u2019s broader outlook remains influenced by ongoing financial challenges, including substantial losses and negative cash flow generation. Technical indicators and valuation measures also remain weak, although recent strategic developments and project wins have provided more positive momentum. Management said successful execution of its commercial pipeline and improvement in financial performance will be key factors shaping the company\u2019s longer-term prospects.<\/p>\n<p>      More about Invinity Energy Systems    <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Invinity Energy Systems is a London-listed energy storage technology company specialising in utility-scale vanadium flow batteries.
