He adds that non-flow technologies likely "have lower investment cost but the energy throughput is lower. Zinc-bromine technologies can do well due to the low cost of materials." To commercialize the technology, the company is preparing to list on the London Stock Exchange to raise 16 million pounds sterling (US$22 million).
