Description

Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), operated by Battelle Memorial Institute under contract to the U.S. Department of Energy, solicits interest from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture, and market the following technology (hereinafter referred to as "Technology"). License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. PNNL may also be available to licensee(s) to assist in further research and development of the Technology under a sponsored research agreement. THE PATENT-PENDING TECHNOLOGY IS: An advanced high-energy density, aqueous zinc polyiodide flow battery that efficiently converts chemical energy to electrical energy without the use of expensive catalysts or membranes. By storing its active chemicals separately until power is needed, it greatly reduces safety concerns. The battery uses a highly soluble iodide/triiodide redox couple that has more than two times the energy density of the all-vanadium flow battery, while overcoming problems associated with the corrosive bromide ion and bromine gas in current zinc bromide batteries. The battery may be used to improve reliability of the power grid, accelerate adoption of renewable energy generation sources (wind / solar), and potentially enable mobile applications such as powering trains and cars. See also http://availabletechnologies.pnnl.gov/technology.asp?id=403 For all inquiries, please reference Battelle IPID 30441. NOTE: THIS IS NOT A PROCUREMENT. Any company interested in licensing the Technology must respond with a Letter of Interest (may be submitted by e-mail) no later than forty-five (45) days from the publication date of this Notice summarizing the company's business and technical expertise and motivation for pursuing this opportunity. Companies deemed appropriate will be provided with further information on the Technology. Such information may require an executed Nondisclosure Agreement. Respondents wishing to enter into negotiations for a commercial license will be required to submit a business plan for the commercialization of the Technology prior to licensee(s) selection and negotiations. Please send letters of interest to the attention of the POC identified within this Notice, referencing Battelle IPID 30441.
