Industrial giant Honeywell International is taking a stake in
energy-storage company ESS Tech as part of a collaboration aimed at
advancing the development and market adoption of iron-flow-battery
energy-storage systems.
ESS said Honeywell has invested $27.5 million in exchange for
nearly 16.5 million shares, along with a warrant to buy up to
another 10.6 million shares at $1.89 apiece.
ESS, based in Wilsonville, Ore., said it also issued a warrant
to buy nearly 6.27 million shares at $2.90 each to Honeywell's UOP
affiliate under an intellectual-property license agreement.
ESS had about 155.6 million shares outstanding as of Aug. 4
Honeywell and ESS said they will work together to meet growing
global demand for long-duration energy storage driven by the rapid
increase in renewable-power generation.
Iron-flow-battery technology uses iron, salt and water to
provide energy storage without reliance on limited minerals such as
lithium, cobalt or vanadium.
