EnerVenue has launched the second-generation of its metal-hydrogen battery: Energy Storage Vessels (ESVs).
Customers can cycle ESVs up to three times per day without rest, and the batteries have an expected lifetime of 30 years/30,000 cycles. ESVs will continue to deliver 86% capacity beyond 30,000 cycles, providing a second asset life. ESVs have been tested and demonstrate no thermal runaway or propagation risk, and there is no need for costly, preventative fire suppression systems. With recyclable components, ESVs are a sustainable and environmentally responsible product.
EnerVenue ESVs offer a highly configurable and scalable product architecture that makes the products ideal building blocks for system integrators of all sizes and business models. ESVs similarly enable a more flexible breadth of deployment locations and are built to thrive even in extreme temperatures. The product also features flexible charge/discharge rates and can discharge to 100%, giving system owners the latitude to capitalize on a broader range of revenue stream opportunities.
“Our new ESVs deliver a meaningful upgrade to the customization and ease with which customers and partners can plan — and expand — their utilization of our transformative and proven battery technology,” said Majid Keshavarz, Chief Technology Officer, EnerVenue. “As the applications using our technology have grown, we wanted to ensure we had a product that could match almost any use case. ESVs package EnerVenue’s incredible technology into a more flexible and efficient solution that we’re excited to bring to market.”
EnerVenue backs its ESVs with the Capacity Assurance extended warranty. Customers selecting Capacity Assurance are guaranteed 88% capacity for up to 20 years/20,000 cycles.
The company is already committed to providing 7 GWh of ESVs as part of existing agreements with customers, including previously announced deal with Pine Gate Renewables. EnerVenue will begin shipping ESVs to customers in 2023.

Hello,
The Nickle Metal Hydrogen batteries sound like the way to go.. I’m going off grid next year and have been looking around to see what’s out there.. A lady friend is using Lithium and has charging problems in the winter time.. Set up a system for my ex girl friend using 20 Yellow Top Optima batteries.. The place I ordered the batteries from had a hard time getting so many at once so I must have ended up with old stock because every few weeks one would fail.. The system did work very well except for that. Warranty was good but a pain in the ass for me.. When I contacted Optima they talked to me like I didn’t know what I was doing and assumed I hooked stuff up wrong then said I was charging with to many amps without knowing what I was charging with.. They didn’t want to spring for $10,000.00 worth of batteries I guess.. lol.. I was so pissed off I gave all 20 batteries to a guy collecting scrap, even the good ones.. I have installed many systems over the years and one I did about thirty years ago is still going strong.. Unless our forest fire got it, Not sure.. Anyway they pissed me off so I won’t be buying their batteries even though I used to have good luck with them before that.. Any way do you know if they make a Nickle Metal Hydrogen battery suitable for off grid? 12 volt or 24 volt? Figured maybe you ran across something in your travels.
