They do look interesting, I haven't heard much about them for a while but here's a review from 2016: https://www.solarquotes.com.au/blog/redflows-zinc-bromide-zcell-battery-may-have-the-edge-over-lithium-ion/ https://www.solarquotes.com.au/blog/redflows-zinc-bromide-zc... Ah, it sounds like they went quiet while setting up manufacturing facilities in Thailand and have recently started marketing again: https://redflow.com/redflow-on-growth-trajectory-after-emerging-from-a-two-year-turnaround/#more-9137 https://redflow.com/redflow-on-growth-trajectory-after-emerg...
