Gelion float on AIM qualify for London Stock Exchange's Green Economy Mark
November 2021
Gelion plc is a UK-Australian energy-storage innovator founded in 2015 by Professor Thomas Maschmeyer as a spin-out from the University of Sydney, Australia’s first university.
Operating primarily out of Australia, the Company was established to commercialise Professor Maschmeyer’s discovery of a battery cell that controls the electrochemistry of zinc-bromide reactions without the need for a flowing electrolyte. This has allowed Gelion to produce its “Endure” battery, which is ideally suited for off-grid and grid connected storage of renewable energy across a range of industries. The Endure battery is protected by patents and patent applications in all core jurisdictions in which Gelion seeks to operate.
The Endure zinc-bromide battery is designed to provide a safe, cost-effective, long-life and recyclable alternative to lithium-ion and lead-acid (PbA) battery technologies for stationary storage of renewable energy. Gelion’s battery can be manufactured using brownfield lead-acid battery production facilities, keeping capital costs very low when compared to other technologies for stationary energy.
The battery technology is highly resistant to fire, even under extreme, deliberate fault scenarios, and can be completely discharged with no loss of function, or damage to the battery. Unlike lithium-ion and PbA batteries the Endure batteries are highly tolerant to temperature extremes, making them well suited for operation without need for expensive air-conditioning systems. The technology is also scalable, which makes the batteries ideal for commercial use and for electricity grid stabilisation.
