IMABATTERY®

 Researchers at Cougar Creek Technologies have developed redox-flow battery technology with a near-neutral solution for increased performance and safety. Using complex cations formed from ligands, we are able to raise the potential of each compound. Our energy-dense electrolyte solutions are made from industry-grade chemicals and don’t require any catalysts, creating an incredibly stable system. In the redox reaction, an acid is reduced and a proton is lost. Competitors use expensive proton membranes to transfer charge between electrolytes, but IMABATTERY® uses porous separators that allow cations and anions to move between the fluids, reducing proton transfer. This keeps performance high and system costs at a breakthrough low of less than $100/kWh.
