4 FAQs about [New Zealand Vanadium Energy Storage]

Where is New Zealand's first grid-connected battery energy storage system located?

Meridian Energy has completed construction of New Zealand’s first large-scale grid-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) at Ruakākā, with an official opening ceremony scheduled for later today.

Why should you buy vanadium in New Zealand?

Producing high-quality vanadium here in New Zealand opens up potential access to a NZ$5.9 billion global market. This new process is efficient and can extract up to 98% of the vanadium locked up in the steel slag. This means that more can be produced from the same volume of raw materials, which will ultimately lead to lower costs and higher profit.

How will a vanadium extraction process benefit New Zealand?

The process could significantly enhance the value of New Zealand’s ironsand and could lead to the development of similar processes to extract vanadium around the world. This will not only deliver greater economic returns to the country, but it will also mean less-toxic chemicals are released into the environment.

Can a closed-loop process produce high-quality vanadium?

This closed-loop process is able to produce vanadium with greater than 99.2% purity. Producing high-quality vanadium here in New Zealand opens up potential access to a NZ$5.9 billion global market. This new process is efficient and can extract up to 98% of the vanadium locked up in the steel slag.
