Further to the announcement of 19 November 2025, Invinity Energy Systems is pleased to confirm that construction of the 20.7 MWh Invinity Copwood VFB Energy Hub (formerly known as the LoDES project) is proceeding on schedule with the first phase of delivery now complete.
40 Invinity Vanadium Flow Batteries have now been delivered from the Company’s Motherwell facility and installed at the site in East Sussex, UK, with shipping of the remaining batteries and the installation of the 3 MWp solar array planned for the New Year.
“To have delivered phase 1 of this flagship project so quickly, safely and efficiently is an incredible achievement. I’m extremely proud of our team and thankful to the partners who have supported us so far in making this project a reality. The Invinity Copwood VFB Energy Hub will be a game-changing blueprint for long duration energy storage not only in Europe, but globally and we’re incredibly excited to take this project live next year.”
– Jonathan Marren, Chief Executive Officer, Invinity Energy Systems
The project, expected to be the largest vanadium flow battery in Europe when operational, remains on schedule to be completed in Q1 2026 ahead of connection to the grid and commercial operation later in 2026. Further updates will be provided in due course.
