EnTiCe

Washington University in St. Louis

EnTiCe is developing a low-cost battery for grid reliability. The EnTiCe system is an all-soluble, electrode decoupled and long lasting design that is considerably less expensive than all-Vanadium RFBs ($400/KWh at scale). The EnTiCe battery uses patented membrane and electrode technologies, with the plan to reach <$50/KWh following scale up and commercialization. The initial target market for this redox flow battery is utility scale storage, which is expected to grow at 20% CAGR in the near term with growth concentrated in China, EU and North America.

Our silicon-based quantum sensor can continuously sense and record information without the need for batteries. By interrogating the stored information at a later time instant, the recipient can retroactively monitor the environmental conditions the sensor experienced. Advantages: Continuously logs data from environmental stimuli without external power or batteries / Provides cumulative, time-integrated information for later retrieval / Leverages mature silicon manufacturing to reduce cost / Reduces gap in coverage by augmenting existing periodic, battery-based solutions /
