Our story

Unbound Potential develops redox flow batteries. We do not use a membrane and multiply the ion exchange at the same time through 3D optimization of the interface of both electrolytes. This reduces the costs and at the same time increases the efficiency. 

Our approach is not limited to one cell chemistry, but can be used as a platform technology for a wide variety of electrolytes.

Technology and Vision

Advanced energy storage systems utilizing Redox Flow Batteries (RFB) have the potential for largescale applications due to their ability to scale their storage capacity with the electrolyte tank volume. However, current RFB systems are not competitive with Li-ion technolog​y due to their high initial cost, system complexity, and limited efficiency. Typically, the membrane component of a RFB is the most expensive, accounting for roughly 20-40% of the total expense. Our technology works without the need for those membranes and instead utilizes the inherent interfacial tension between immiscible electrolyte solutions.
