Large-Scale, Long-Duration Energy Storage
Engineered for the most demanding environments
From Offshore to Onshore Applications
Why Storage Matters
Renewable power is not always available when and where it is needed
Energy storage bridges the gap between variable generation and electricity demand.
When
Temporal Mismatch
Wind and solar generation vary over time and do not always coincide with electricity demand.
WHERE
Grid Mismatch
Network constraints can prevent renewable power from reaching users, causing curtailment and lost value.
Long-duration energy storage absorbs surplus power and delivers it when the energy system needs it.
How FLASC stores energy
A simple look at how renewable power is converted, stored underwater and delivered when needed.
2-MINUTE EXPLAINER
01
Charge
Renewable electricity drives the liquid-piston system to compress air.
02
STORE
Energy is retained as compressed air in submerged steel storage.
03
Deliver
The process reverses to return dispatchable electricity to the grid.

Manage market volatility and merchant risk
Renewable energy is increasingly exposed to market volatility and merchant risk, weakening the overall business case.
Increase the value of renewable power
FLASC adds flexibility to the energy supply, hedging volatility and increasing the value of delivered power.
Strengthen project economics and deployment
Improving the business case of wind and solar enables more projects to be built and accelerates clean-energy deployment.
