RFC Power is a global provider of long duration energy storage solutions
RFC Power is dedicated to helping the world store renewable energy, simply and safely so it can be used whenever it’s needed. RFC Power specializes in developing novel flow battery chemistries for energy storage systems. The core activities of RFC Power are the chemistry, cell architecture and the optimisation of flow battery stack components.
RFC Power is working with partners to build and market our storage systems making use of existing production facilities, supplier networks and economies of scale. The company was spun out from Imperial College’s Departments of Engineering and Chemistry by the institution’s innovation arm in 2017 and is underpinned by a number of scientific breakthroughs published in top tier scientific journals conducted in the labs of Nigel Brandon, Anthony Kucernak, Javier Rubio Garcia and Vladimir Yufit over the last 8 years.
We are based at the Imperial College White City Incubator.
The company has been supported through grant funding provided by Innovate UK, Fundacion Repsol, EIT Climate KIC, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and Imperial College, and project funding from Shell GameChanger and Orsted. Seed investment was provided by Kiko Ventures and joint development partner Ceres Power.
