CMBlu Energy

We’re fostering a reliable energy future, together! 🤝🔋 Our German and U.S. leadership teams recently embarked on a whirlwind journey around the United States, made extra special as it marked the first of many visits from CMBlu Energy's CEO Constantin Eis. Knowing the importance of scaling operations stateside, Constantin shared his passion for building the clean energy future across the U.S. with our partners and emphasized CMBlu’s commitment to successfully building out the variety of projects now underway.  Building on that momentum over the course of the tour, our team connected, collaborated, and strategized with numerous key partners on how we can best work together to provide the long-duration energy storage needed for utilities and additional commercial and industrial applications to meet their respective energy goals. CMBlu’s dedicated leadership and staff understands the critical need for providing grid security and resiliency through energy storage resources and we’re ready to show how our one-of-a-kind, innovative approach to battery storage can be an invaluable part of the energy transition solution. We appreciate the generous time and hospitality of our partners at Salt River Project and WEC Energy Group (pictured) – your support is invaluable as we continue to grow and innovate. 🎉 Here's to celebrating many more milestones together!   #Partnerships #Innovation #EnergyStorage #SolidFlow #BatteryTech

Over the past year, there has been strong demand for energy storage resources from utilities as well as C&I customers – and that surge in interest and deployment has certainly continued into 2024. 📖 The U.S. energy storage market set a Q1 2024 installation record, up 84% from Q1 2023, according to American Clean Power Association (ACP)’s new US Energy Storage Monitor report. This kind of sustained growth shows the need and interest for batteries playing a critical role on our nation’s electric grids. It’s also why our CMBlu Energy, Inc. team was proud to be part of this year’s ACP Clean Power on the Hill event to advocate for further renewable energy and energy storage investment. 🔋    U.S. President Giovanni Damato and Head of Special Projects Julie M. Royes spoke with key policymakers in Congress about the fast-growing need for medium and long duration energy storage and how continuing to fund renewable energy tax incentives, better establishing property rights for clean energy project development, and passing permitting reform legislation can help advance the larger clean energy transition. This event was a wonderful opportunity to share how we’re working with customers to advance their energy goals and also demonstrate the essential role our unique Organic SolidFlow batteries can play in making those goals a reality.     👉 Check out our team’s full write up from this impactful event about what our team believes would be the most impactful federal policy asks and how Congress can best support the battery energy storage space going forward.    #Decarbonization #EnergyStorage #EnergyTransition #SolidFlowBattery #CMBlu #EnergyPolicy #CleanEnergy #ACP

The final day of The smarter E Europe in Munich is in full swing. Dr. Tyler A Gully and Markus Geigle are meeting with Sebastian M. Scholz, Dr. at Munich Re's booth at #IntersolarEurope 2024. 🔋 Always great to have interesting and inspiring exchanges with the Munich Re Green Tech Solutions team, the leading energy storage insurance providers! #EES #EnergyStorage #EnergyInnovation #Exhibition

Entdecken. Erforschen. Erleben. So das Motto. 💡 Studiengänge kennenlernen 🎨 Kreative Mittmachaktionen in der Kinder-Uni 📖 Mini-Coaching für Gründungsinteressierte 🏀 Sportprogramm 🏛 Campusführung 🥗 Kulinarisches 🛠️ Technik & Innovation 💐 Kulturelle Vielfalt 🎓 Weiterbildung und Karrierechancen Das ist unser Stichwort. 👉 Ein schöner Anlass, um auf die Campus Careers am 15. Mai zurückzublicken: https://lnkd.in/eNBS22tx #Campus #Karriere #Direkteinstieg #Praktikum #Aschaffenburg

CMBlu Energy’s U.S. President, Giovanni Damato, had the opportunity to speak with pv magazine USA’s Michael Puttré regarding recent developments, as well as our innovative technology’s unique positioning within the energy storage space, including:     🔋 Mercedes-Benz’s first order of our Organic SolidFlow batteries in Germany   🔋 How our technology is free from supply chain constrained critical minerals, like lithium   🔋 Our forward-thinking approach in the flow battery space to allow for cost-effective scaling and energy storage    “That’s where we differentiate ourselves from most flow batteries, where in the tanks are typically just liquid electrolyte and can be quite large for long-duration storage. Whereas we have stationary solids in the tank as well, which improves our energy density. We can have smaller tanks that have a smaller installed footprint,” said President, Giovanni Damato.      👉 Read the full post here: https://lnkd.in/eZMCwgcX   #EnergyStorage #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #CMBluEnergy 

President, Giovanni Damato spoke with Lisa Cohn at Microgrid Knowledge to discuss our partnership with Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) and Idaho National Laboratory (INL), and the ability to lower microgrid costs with long-duration storage and easily sourced materials.  🔋 The project with ANL and INL could boost the resilience of microgrids by demonstrating a constant power supply, even during outages. “They’re demonstrating how a 10-hour duration battery has certain benefits, especially paired with EV charging,” said Damato.    👉 Find the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gktUDVxG #Renewables #EnergyStorage #CleanEnergy #BatteryTech #Microgrid #EVs #EVcharging 

We are proud to share that international finance and banking industry veteran Thomas Kilian is joining the Board of our U.S. subsidiary CMBlu Energy, Inc. Thomas will serve as a senior advisor and financial leader. He is assuming this role at a critical time as we expand our U.S. manufacturing footprint to build our first-of-its-kind, Organic SolidFlow battery. We’re happy to have you aboard, Thomas. Welcome! 💐 👉 You can read more about CMBlu’s rapid growth in our full announcement here: https://lnkd.in/efQDrkrw #EnergyStorage #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #OrganicSolidFlow #CMBluEnergy 

Check out CMBlu Energy, Inc. President Giovanni Damato and Salt River Project Chico Hunter’s appearance in Utility Dive’s “Taking Charge” series focused on engaging with power sector leaders on the energy transition.  This piece highlights our Organic SolidFlow battery technology, our proud partnership with Mercedes-Benz, and our Desert Blume project with the Salt River Project utility in Arizona. It also highlights two of the standout differentiators for CMBlu’s battery technology; an onshore supply chain free of critical minerals and increased safety.   🔋 “The Organic SolidFlow battery uses an oil- or bioplastics-derived feedstock that contains no lithium, nickel, cobalt or other critical minerals, so it’s less reliant on international suppliers and less vulnerable to volatile commodity prices,” Damato said. 🔋 “CMBlu’s 5-MW SRP pilot project, which is expected to come online late next year, will have 80 strings of modules that can be disconnected individually if a single module malfunctions, reducing the risk of a catastrophic failure,” Hunter said.
