Invinity Completes Manufacturing Expansion

First shipment from new facility; UL certification granted for Invinity VS3 battery modules

Invinity Energy Systems plc (AIM: IES) (AQSE: IES) (OTCQX: IESVF), a leading global manufacturer of utility-grade energy storage , is pleased to announce the first shipment of Invinity batteries from new manufacturing partner Baojia New Energy ("Baojia").

The Company announced on 27 June 2022 in its 2021 Full Year Results that it was expanding its manufacturing capabilities by working with Baojia, a contract manufacturer with over 1,000 employees and more than 180,000 square meters of facilities located across Asia primarily dedicated to manufacturing hardware for renewable energy projects worldwide.

1.1 MWh of Invinity batteries have now been shipped from Baojia's facility in Suzhou China. These batteries will form part of the 8.4 MWh order placed by Elemental Energy for their project in the Canadian province of Alberta announced on 3 February 2022. The batteries will be shipped to Alberta via Invinity's facility in Vancouver where the systems will undergo final assembly and testing ahead of expected delivery in Q4 2022.

Invinity's VS3 battery modules can now be marked as certified to UL1973, the globally recognised standard for stationary battery systems. The UL certification mark, issued by Underwriters Laboratories, is especially important within North America where it is often required for equipment connected to the electric grid.

UL certification sets Invinity's product apart from many other emerging battery technologies and provides third-party validation of Invinity VS3 safety characteristics. This certification is a key component of the Company's ongoing North American growth strategy and builds from the announcement that Invinity's products have been certified compliant with multiple major ISO standards in April this year.

Matt Harper, Chief Commercial Officer at Invinity said: "We are constantly working to improve our customers' experience deploying Invinity's products. Delivering against tight timelines and seamlessly integrating our products at site is critical to achieving that goal. Our announcement today combines two critical steps toward delivering ever-larger projects that benefit from Invinity's focus on operational excellence at scale. I'm thrilled that our partners at Elemental and every one of our existing and future customers will benefit from this critical evolution of Invinity's capabilities. "
