Perth-based AVESS has rebranded as AVESS Energy to support the companyโ€™s positioning as an energy storage solutions company powered by vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB).

The rebranding to AVESS Energy closely follows the companyโ€™s successful commissioning of a 50kW VRFB in Perth on January 19, 2024, signifying the Australia-first manufacture of a commercial-scale single-module VRFB.

AVESS Energy is preparing its 50kW VRFB for commercial demonstrations in the mining sector.

AVESS Energy managing director Young Yu said, โ€œOur rebrand to AVESS Energy supports a deeper decarbonisation purpose to provide sustainable, safe, and efficient VRFBs to the energy, mining, and utility sectors.

โ€œThe name AVESS Energy represents the capabilities, expertise, and insights that our team brings to Australiaโ€™s energy storage mix.

โ€œWe understand the complexities and language of energy, mining, and utilities, and our new branding brings us in closer alignment with these sectors.
