What We Do
Vanadium Flow Battery Systems
Modular, containerised flow battery systems engineered for safety, scalability and long-duration performance.
Critical Infrastructure Applications
Energy storage solutions for data centres, mining, renewable energy, off-grid sites and industrial operations.
Advanced Battery Development
Research and development focused on electrolyte optimisation, system architecture and next-generation energy storage.
Why Vanadium Flow Batteries
Long-duration energy storage is infrastructure - the focus is not the technology, but delivering reliable, low-cost performance over time.
01
Safety
No Thermal Runaway
Non-flammable, water-based electrolyte eliminates fire risk - making it suitable for high-risk environments such as data centres, mining and industrial sites.
02
Lifetime
20-25 Year System Life
No capacity degradation over thousands of cycles, enabling consistent performance without the need for battery replacement.
03
Circular Value
Reusable Electrolyte
Vanadium electrolyte is fully reusable, retaining long-term value and supporting a circular energy storage model.
04
Duration
6–12+ Hour Storage Duration
Designed for long-duration applications where sustained energy delivery is required - not short bursts.
05
Flexible System Design
Flexible System Design
Power and energy are decoupled, allowing systems to be configured for specific project requirements and scaled over time.
Where Long-Duration Energy Matters Most
Focused on high-demand environments where reliability, uptime and long-duration performance are critical.
Off-Grid & Mining
Diesel reduction, hybrid microgrids, and reliable energy in remote and high-demand environments.
Commercial & Industrial
Peak demand management, energy cost optimisation, and on-site resilience.
Renewable Energy Systems
Solar farming, energy shifting, and grid stability for large-scale renewable integration.
Data Centres
Baseload support, peak shaving, and high-reliability backup for critical infrastructure.
Active Development Programs
CHARG is currently undertaking multiple R&D and system development programs spanning laboratory validation, system architecture, and field deployment.
02
PowerPod Modular Flow Battery Development
Field validation and certification of CHARG’s scalable 20ft PowerPod vanadium flow battery system using mixed-acid electrolyte.
800 Vdc design for ease of deployment in modern applications.
This program establishes the PowerPod as a modular MW-scale building block for utility, industrial, and remote energy storage deployments.
03
Split Flow Battery Systems for Data Centres
Development of a dual-stack configuration where external stacks continuously charge while internal stacks directly power server racks.
This architecture reduces switchgear complexity, optimises power distribution infrastructure, and enables electrolyte-assisted thermal management within high-density data centre environments.
05
Mil-Spec ReFlex Microgrid Platform
Rugged Sub MWh Scalable System Architecture
Development of a hardened, AI-enabled microgrid platform designed for remote and demanding environments.
The ReFlex system integrates optimised power electronics with remote monitoring and autonomous control to deliver resilient on-grid and off-grid performance.
