Dutch Minister Eric Wiebes (Economic Affairs & Climate Policy) visits Elestor
On Wednesday, January 29, minister Wiebes visited the premises of Elestor, accompanied by Deputy Christianne van de Wal, Councilman Jan van Dellen and Dionne Huidekoper, spokeswoman of the minister.
The visit was hosted by Kevin Rijke, Managing Director of Industry Park Kleefse Waard (IPKW), and was part of a bicycle tour during which the delegation met with a selected group of companies, headquartered at IPKW.
The delegation was welcomed by Wiebrand Kout (Founder & CTO) and Guido Dalessi (CEO), who gave an introduction of Elestor’s unique storage technology. It was emphasized that the hydrogen bromine flow battery technology forms the link between the seemingly two different worlds of electricity storage by batteries and hydrogen based storage applications.

Bidirectionele energiecentrale
Vanaf Nederlandse bodem werkt Elestor aan het opschalen van een waterstofbromide flowbatterij. Guido Dalessi, CEO van Elestor, vertelt waarom deze technologie zo speciaal is: “Onze batterij werkt op basis van twee heel veel voorkomende en dus goedkope chemische elementen, waardoor adoptie op wereldschaal mogelijk is. Wij zien zelfs mogelijkheden om in de toekomst complete fossiele centrales te vervangen met onze flowbatterij.
