Invinity Energy Systems in the UK
Made in Britian Batteries powering lower-cost, lower-carbon energy for the UK
Invinity Energy Systems is the UK’s largest manufacturer of grid-scale energy storage, delivering UK-designed and manufactured Vanadium Flow Batteries (VFBs) which unlock more low-cost wind and solar power for our national grid, helping to drive down electricity bills for consumers and boost UK energy security with more home-grown energy.
Designed for UK Energy Storage Projects
With UK energy bills more than 40% higher than in 2022 and more than £2bn a year being spent to curtail renewable power generation, the need battery storage has never been greater in the UK. Offering unlimited cycling, zero fire risk and 30+ year service life, Invinity’s vanadium flow batteries deliver unparalleled flexibility in operation and broad applicability to a range of different use cases. From colocated battery + solar or wind projects to standalone BESS, commercial and industrial sites, datacenters and more, our market leading technology can meet your needs.
Why UK customers choose Invinity’s market-leading Made In Britain technology:
- Long-term flexibility. Designed for 30+ years of heavy-duty operation, matching the lifespan of solar and wind assets and the flexibility to adapt to the ever-evolving UK energy landscape

Technology You Can Trust
Invinity delivers the world’s most advanced, most deployed, and most reliable vanadium flow batteries. Our products are engineered for predictable performance under continuous cycling, with no capacity fade from cycling, accurate SOC measurement, and sub‑second response for operational flexibility. We’ve built our technology on decades of electrochemistry know‑how and validated performance data.
Our current product lineup:
- Endurium™: Our next‑generation, modular VFB optimised for large‑scale, long‑duration projects; engineered to scale from 3 to 100+ MW and operate 4–18+ hours without cycle limits.
- Endurium Enterprise™: Tailored for Commercial & Industrial (C&I) customers needing 1-20 MW, delivering safe, economical renewables integration and tariff optimisation with long‑duration flexibility.
Furthermore, independent verification of our product specifications from DNV, combined with a full suite of US certifications and standards gives you the confidence to choose Endurium for your project, over less proven, less bankable alternatives.
Proven Customer Track Record
Don’t just take our word for it. Invinity’s systems are operating at nearly 100 sites across more than 17 countries, backed by years of real‑world operating data and sustained, high‑throughput performance in commercial settings. We’ve deployed the world’s most proven flow batteries at scale, and we’re bringing that same experience to the UK. To date, our solutions have delivered more than 8 GWh of energy in the field, proving consistent, reliable performance over time.
Some of our UK customers:
- Invinity Copwood VFB: At almost 21 MWh, this solar-paired vanadium flow battery will be the biggest in Europe; leveraging its long-duration and high cycling capabilities for solar shifting and energy arbitrage.
- Energy Superhub Oxford: Invinity delivered a 5 MWh VFB, then the largest in the UK, to this innovative EDF-owned project that provides local grid services and energy trading capabilities.
- European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC): Paired with tidal power and a green hydrogen electrolyser, in a world first, this vanadium flow battery was chosen for its ability to cycle heavily without degradation.

A UK‑Based Team Committed for the Long Term
You’re not selecting a one‑time solution—you’re investing in a durable asset and scalable solution. Invinity’s UK team delivers commercial, technical, and project support from early concept through deployment and long‑term operation. We work side‑by‑side with developers, owners, operators, and business customers to support entire portfolios, not just individual projects.
How we work with you:
- Built to scale: Modular, standardised system elements designed for consistent replication across multiple sites.
-
Lifecycle focus: End‑to‑end alignment, from system modeling and interconnection planning through commissioning and decades of operation.
-
Long‑term partnership: Ongoing training, digital tools, and responsive, lifetime support—reinforced by our UK‑based support team.
More Than a Battery: Your Storage Partner
Our approach is straightforward: start with your objectives, then configure storage that delivers bankable outcomes—cost savings, revenue stacking, and resilience—without compromising safety or longevity. We combine factory‑built standardisation with simplified site‑level engineering so your projects are repeatable, serviceable, and designed to scale. From utilities to data centers, Invinity delivers.
Typical UK use cases:
- Grid‑scale: Capacity and renewable firming, ancillary services, and transmission‑deferral strategies
- C&I: Demand charge management, renewables integration and resilience
- Datacentres: Load balancing, grid connection optimisation and renewables integration
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Invinity operate in the United Kingdom?
Yes. Invinity Energy Systems has a long‑established and substantial presence in the United Kingdom, including corporate leadership, engineering, manufacturing, and project delivery. The UK is one of Invinity’s core markets and a central part of the company’s global operations.
