Invinity Energy Systems plc (AIM: IES) (AQSE: IES) (OTCQX: IESVF) a leading global manufacturer of utility-grade energy storage, was delighted to welcome British Columbia Government and Vancouver Council elected officials, business and industrial sector leaders and supply chain partners, alongside the Greater Vancouver Board of Trade, to its manufacturing facilities in Vancouver yesterday as part of New Economy Canada's "Getting Things Built" tour, showcasing Canadian-manufactured technology.

A number of key discussions led by New Economy Canada, of which Invinity is a member, and co-hosted by Invinity's President and Chief Commercial Officer, Matt Harper, were held during the visit that centred on how technologies, such as Invinity's vanadium flow batteries, are helping to grow British Columbia's economy, diversify export markets and support local jobs.

The energy storage industry is widely recognised to be one of the fastest growing in the world, driven by the need to ensure economies everywhere can access clean, renewable energy both reliably and affordably. The Canadian government is currently implementing measures to boost its national economy and strengthen local supply chains and a core focus of New Economy Canada's "Getting Things Built" cross-Canada tour is to spotlight technology like Invinity's Vanadium Flow Batteries which are expected to play an important role in Canada's future economic growth by supporting a strong, clean energy grid.

The guests were given a guided tour Invinity's Pender Street facility, in the heart of East Vancouver's commercial district, and met with key members of Invinity's staff who demonstrated how Invinity builds its standardised, scalable battery technology. The guests were also given updates on the deployment of Invinity's ENDURIUM battery technology into longer duration energy storage projects in Canada and across the world. 

Merran Smith, President of New Economy Canada said:

"Last year, over two trillion dollars were invested into clean economy sectors globally. This trend to invest in clean energy and clean tech - which also makes the economy more efficient, more productive and more competitive - is going to continue. BC has what it takes to attract more of that investment so that we can keep getting things built in the province and help British Columbians prosper."

Jamie Houssian, Principal, Elemental Energy Inc said:

"Invinity's energy storage systems take a good thing and makes it better. And that's what we're trying to do with renewable energy, take a good thing and make it better. And that will enable it to be more commonplace. Renewables often take heat for being intermittent, and batteries help. They're going to enable greater integration and penetration of renewables across the world. Canada can be a leader, both in the technology development as well as the roll out and commercialization and execution."

Matt Harper, President and Chief Commercial Officer of Invinity said:

"Clean, low-cost energy is central to Canada's economic future. We are extremely proud to be playing our part in delivering this important resource.

"Beyond our borders, longer duration energy storage is key to delivering low carbon energy on demand to homes and businesses. Invinity's Vancouver factory is filling this need, delivering the most advanced vanadium flow batteries to our rapidly growing global customer base.

"Today's event reinforces that Canada has tremendous strength in the innovative individuals, organisations and institutions who are dedicated to getting things built. Invinity is delighted to be part of New Economy Canada and is looking forward to delivering economic growth and good, durable jobs at home while helping build the world's future electrical grid."
