Re: Sales...? Thats an interesting post Eric. I do not pretend to be technically astute when it comes to Flow machines but Scott Macgreggor has stated many times during interviews that the only part that would need replacing in the 'batteries' is the pump.From your post it would appear that he is wrong. Could you please explain your point of view further?

Re: Sales...? Hi, the issue with sales is the production of a cost effective machine, the ongoing cost includes membranes for the cells. The membrane availability and viability is the blockage to confidence in the technology I think, as it is produced by one supplier and expensive and the demand is rising. Until the other membrane developers release their products ( patented of course) Things won’t take off. It’s like having a car that uses up spark plugs every 100 hours and there is only one place you can buy them. Nafion212 is about $21 per 10cm square. I don’t know the size of the cell membranes but it will be a major build an maintenance cost liability and a concern for anyone owning one. Some sites say a change due to contamination is needed every 100 to 400 hours of “ Use”. ( not defined) DuPont hold the patent and can charge whatever they like or stop making it tomorrow. However good stuff on the way that could increase power yield and improve life of the major component. This technology has come of age and it will be used a lot, things do look good, it’s either that or Nukes![link]

Re: Sales...? They have said this year orders are full they want to complete them any new orders now for 2019 and these they are for mega projects and completion of 3rd generation units, so we will just have to wait .

Re: Sales...? Still no announcement of further sales, what has halted progress. I put some money on LPA. good figures there this morning. Would be nice to RED come out with good figures. As I have said in the past, management at RED excels at producing losses, lookslike this year may once more prove true to form?IMHO,ws

Sales...? We need to see more in the way of sales, there appears tobe a lack of momentum, indeed there appears to be too long a period of 'nothing doing' in respect of sales.WS

(AKZA.AE) said that its specialty chemicals business, together with Gasunie New Energy, is considering building a 20 megawatt electrolysis plant in the Netherlands to convert water into hydrogen using green energy.The aim of the project is to store green energy in the form of hydrogen through electrolysis, using electricity to convert water into the gas, the industrial paints and chemicals company said.Akzo said that the eventual aim is to build even larger plants to store green energy as hydrogen. Currently the largest planned electrolysis plant in the Netherlands has a 1 megawatt capacity, it said.

RNS Today's RNS shows a nice tidy-up, allowing solid focus on thecore business of energy storage. Indeed with the complexitiesof the associated businesses out of the way, Redt Energy maynow be of interest to a larger company, i.e. Redt may now bea potential takeover target.IMHO,ws
