Why BioZen
Grow a green grid, faster
To meet Paris Climate Agreement goals the US needs 200 gigawatts (GW) of long-duration grid-scale energy storage by 2035.
Today, the US has 1 GW.
To meet demand and ramp up in time, we'll need grid-scale energy storage materials that are quickly accessible and cheap to produce. BioZen is creating those materials — inspired by the most abundant energy storage on earth: green plants.Read our three points below to understand how.
1. Small Batteries Don't Address Big Use Cases
In recent years, we've seen a global revolution in battery power for everything from phones to cars. These batteries use lithium-ion technology. But issues like short-term capacity (think: range anxiety) and flammable chemistry mean lithium chemistry doesn't scale to long-duration, grid scale uses like cities, wind and solar farms, and factories — a huge portion of worldwide energy needs. This is a global challenge, and stands to represent an untapped multi-trillion dollar market.
2. The Best Solutions Must Supercharge Production
The most promising grid-scale alternative is long-duration, safe redox flow batteries, a technology the US Department of Energy has framed as "ideally suited for longer duration (8+ hours) applications."1But today, redox flow batteries' primary energy storage material (electrolyte) — the source of over 50% of their cost — comes from metals like vanadium. While relatively abundant, these metals are still too expensive to meet the global demand for massive battery build-up.To meet the incredible demand, redox flow companies will need a far more cost-effective electrolyte to scale production quickly.
3. Bio-Inspired Electrolytes for the Future of Energy
BioZen is giving redox flow providers a better alternative — inspired by the most abundant and efficient energy producers in nature: Green plants.BioZen mimics plants' organic semiconductors — providing a redox flow electrolyte for a fraction of the cost of vanadium electrolytes.That means ultra-low startup costs to help the green revolution flourish fast.
