VRB Energy
VRB Energy’s vanadium redox batteries (VRB) store energy in liquid electrolyte in a patented process based on the reduction and oxidation of ionic forms of the element vanadium. Based on a 250kW containerized module, VRB-ESS is typically 1MW / 4MWh up to 10MW / 80MWh in size installed at utility, commercial, and industrial sites, in support of solar or wind farms, or in isolated microgrids. Typical configurations use 4, 6, or 8 hours of storage depending on the amount of energy required. The battery is safe, reliable, and non-toxic. Components can be nearly 100% recycled at end-of-life, dramatically improving lifecycle economics and environmental benefits.

Bracing & Anchoring
Gripple, Inc.
Gripple’s Photovoltaic (PV) Solutions for ground-mounted arrays provide a reliable, low-cost alternative to traditional methods. Their products provide protection to the array against active forces such as strong winds, natural earth movements, storms, earthquakes, and temperature expan- sion/contraction, thus eliminating torsion, tension, and compression issues. The bracing and anchoring kits are lightweight, easy to install, and are versatile enough to be either specified into a site or retrofitted into most existing systems, making them suitable for repairs and refusals. www.gripple.com
