We are bringing certain energy for an uncertain world.
For too long, the clean energy story has been a prisoner of "if" and "when."
If the wind is blowing… When the sun is shining… If this. If that.
When now. When not. For clean energy to deliver – it needs to deliver less doubt.
We deliver energy certainty.
Certain Energy is working with partners to build and market our storage systems making use of existing production facilities, supplier networks and economies of scale. The company was spun out from Imperial College’s Departments of Engineering and Chemistry by the institution’s innovation arm in 2017 and is underpinned by a number of scientific breakthroughs published in top tier scientific journals conducted in the labs of Nigel Brandon, Anthony Kucernak, Javier Rubio Garcia and Vladimir Yufit over the last 8 years.
The energy transition is now.
As the growth of renewable generation accelerates, so does the world’s need for energy storage to manage it.
The energy transition is now.
Energy storage helps balance the grid and lowers costs for end consumers.
The energy transition is now.
Long duration storage enables excess wind and solar energy to be shifted to periods of peak demand.
We are developing the only storage technology that combines high efficiency and low cost.
Our mission is to enable the transition to 100% renewable energy by storing hours or days of it at grid-scale.
RFC Power’s globally patented hydrogen-manganese system combines optimised cell architecture with low-cost chemistry.
High Performance stacks
Delivering >75% system round-trip efficiency
Enduring chemistry
Designed for 20+ years of operation
GWh without Giga-factories
Targeting < $20/kWh energy storage cost
Our stack technology.
combines the benefits of a flow battery with the best elements of fuel cell technology to efficiently convert electrical energy to chemical energy and back again.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
Unique, globally patented hydrogen manganese chemistry with the lowest levelised cost of storage.
Scaling means bigger tanks, not bigger factories.
We are building a company to be the UK champion in energy and technology sovereignty.
Our high performance platform delivers affordable energy surety from hours to days to months.
Certain Energy use cases
Commercial and industrial sites behind-the-meter to reduce electricity costs through increased self-consumption, price arbitrage, reduced time of use charges, lower fixed charges and flexibility markets and for blackout prevention (backup power).
Certain Energy use cases
Grid (utility) scale systems in-front-of the meter interconnected to distribution or transmission networks for electricity price arbitrage and participation in flexibility markets.
Certain Energy use cases
Co-location with large scale renewable generation (solar or wind) to relieve network constraints, prevent curtailment and avoid grid upgrades.
Certain Energy use cases
Off-grid as part of a self-sufficient microgrid in combination with renewable generation to replace dirty diesel generators and provide reliable power for rural communities and businesses.
