Progress on FlexBase Project Delivery

Invinity selects Equans Switzerland as EPC partner

Further to the announcement on 21 May 2026 that the Company had been selected to design the world's largest vanadium flow battery ("VFB") for FlexBase Group's Technology Centre Laufenburg ("TZL") project in Switzerland, Invinity Energy Systems plc (AIM: IES), a global leader in vanadium flow battery technology, is pleased to announce that it has signed an Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) agreement with Equans Switzerland ("Equans"), for the preparation of delivery of the project.

Above: Daniel Zbindnen, Head of Building Services, Equans Switzerland and Jonathan Marren, CEO Invinity Energy Systems sign the agreement.

Under the agreement, Equans will be responsible for providing the mechanical, electrical and piping works as well as other ancillary technical services to Invinity's VFB battery solution as part of the wider TZL project located in Laufenburg, Switzerland. The project will feature an AI datacentre and technology campus integrated with a 1.5 GWh Invinity VFB system, believed to be the world's largest. The VFB is expected to expand to 2.1 GWh in a subsequent development phase.

This partnership builds on an established working relationship between the two companies, including collaboration on a vanadium flow battery project in Belgium announced in 2022. This experience provided both companies with direct insight into each other's technical capabilities and delivery standards, reinforcing Equans' confidence in the high-quality, reliability and suitability of Invinity's technology for deployment into the TZL project.

Further to previous announcements, engineering and detailed design phase activities are already well advanced and are proceeding as planned. Key construction milestones have been achieved on schedule and both companies are continuing to work collaboratively alongside FlexBase and other project stakeholders to advance the project toward full delivery.

Claudio Picech, Chief Executive Officer at Equans Switzerland said:

"We are proud to partner with Invinity for this landmark project, a market leader in high quality, flexible, high-throughput BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems), with whom Equans also works in other countries.
