At the 2025 International Flow Battery Forum (IFBF) in Vienna, TerraFlow Energy and Quino Energy announced a strategic collaboration to advance the integration of organic redox-active electrolytes into large-format flow battery systems.
The partnership centres on the deployment of Quino Energy’s patented, water-soluble quinone chemistry – engineered for high solubility, redox reversibility, and long-term cycling stability – within TerraFlow’s LDUPS™ (Long Duration Uninterruptible Power Supply) platform. This architecture is optimised for high-throughput, mission-critical environments such as AI data centers, industrial automation and off-grid infrastructure.
“Meeting the power demands of modern infrastructure requires a new class of storage,” said Ian Rock, founder and CTO of TerraFlow Energy. “LDUPS was developed to condition loads, eliminate harmonics, and deliver uninterrupted power where it matters most. Partnering with Quino allows us to expand these capabilities using an innovative organic chemistry.”
“We’re excited to collaborate with TerraFlow to bring our chemistry into real-world deployment,” said Eugene Beh, CEO of Quino Energy. “Their focus on industrial-scale energy storage aligns perfectly with our mission to make flow batteries more scalable, accessible, and safe for a wide range of applications, all without any need for critical materials.”
The collaboration will focus on chemistry-to-system integration, materials compatibility and manufacturing scale-up. The goal is to deliver a fire-safe, non-toxic, and mineral-independent flow battery solution that meets the operational demands of long-duration, high-reliability applications.
