The Dalian Flow Battery Energy Storage Peak-shaving Power Station, in Dalian in northeast China, has just been connected to the grid, and will be operating by mid-October.
The Xinhua Ushi represents the world’s largest completed flow battery at this stage. However, many bigger ones are on the horizon, such as the 250 MW/1 GWh project in Chabuchar, Xinjiang, by China Energy Conservation and Environmental Protection Group, or the 200 MW/1 GWh project in Jimusaer, Xinjiang, by China Three Gorges Corporation.
The world’s biggest vanadium flow battery has been successfully connected to the grid in China by Dalian Rongke Energy Storage Technology Development— following six years of planning, construction, and commissioning.
It also plays an important role in regulating energy supply and frequency, making it a key component of China’s sustainable energy future. Rongke Power, a pioneer in flow battery technology, previously developed the 100 MW/400 MWh Dalian system in 2022, the largest of its kind at the time.

“700MWh is a large battery – regardless of technology. Unfortunately, VRFBs (or any flow battery technology) of this size are only happening in China,” he said. Ronke Power is also the company behind what was previously the world’s largest VRFB system, a 100MW/400MWh project in Dalian.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
