Identification
-
GST battery production processes produce utility scale batteries that offer simple and low cost operation for utility companies. These batteries have expanded discharge capabilities, use less space and operate at high efficiency with a longer life cycle than competing brands.
Technology
-
GST takes a different approach in their design by setting a price goal and then developing their battery and manufacturing processes around meeting that goal. As a consequence, they redesigned and repacked electrical membranes, electrodes and storage components, since these components contribute the most to the cost. Their technology designs also improve maintenance, durability, heat management and flexibility.

Significance
-
Because of minimal operating cost and the long life cycle, GST batteries offer their users a high return on investment in energy storage assets.
