HyProMagUSA expansion announced today!

- NPV increases to US$279m (current prices) and US$593m (forecast prices) based on previously announced Feasibility Study for #HyProMagUSA’s state of the art #RareEarth magnet recycling and manufacturing project in Texas

- Production expansion to 1,557 tonnes per year, comprising 750 tonnes per year recycled sintered NdFeB magnets and 807 tonnes per year associated NdFeB co-products

- Exceptionally low carbon footprint confirmed for #HyProMag NdFeB #RareEarth products - approximate 95% reduction of CO2-eq emissions versus primary mine to magnet production

https://lnkd.in/ePzVNMXS

- Further tripling of production to at least 3,000 tonnes per year NdFeB to be evaluated, including the opportunity to process additional primary material to support expansion

- Integrated USA development of long loop chemical processing to be evaluated, complementary to the HPMS short-loop process

HyProMag’s projects are underpinned by the patented Hydrogen Processing of Magnet Scrap (HPMS) technology developed by the Magnetic Materials Group at University of Birmingham and being commercialized by HyProMag Ltd in United Kingdom (2025), HyProMag GmbH in Germany (2025) and #HyProMagUSA in the United States (2027). HPMS is exclusively licenced to HyProMag by University of Birmingham

HyProMag is supported by the Minerals Security Partnership.

HPMS has major competitive advantages versus other rare earth magnet recycling technologies:

-HPMS solves the challenges of liberating embedded magnets from end-of-life scrap streams

-HPMS facilitates short-loop recycling producing a higher value added NdFeB magnet product with a 95% reduction in CO2 footprint, as opposed to an oxide or mixed carbonate

#HyProMagUSA is a 50:50 joint venture company owned by CoTec Corp. and HyProMag Ltd. Via Maginito, HyProMag Ltd is 79.4% owned by Mkango Resources Ltd. and 20.6% owned by CoTec Corp.

Question :

“When these various deals and placings are done what assurance do investors have that at this level of dilution there will be no more placings in the next 12 to 18 months”

Craigs Answer :

“At least firstly as a company we want to minimize and avoid unnecessary dilution for all shareholders with the funding raise and the various initiatives we are implementing to reduce costs and increase the company's production and profitability. I'm aiming for the company not to require any substantial funding for at least the next 24 months hopefully we'll see a recovery in the vanadium price during 2024”

VRFB for the home : STORAC

Redox flow? Sounds like a complicated installation.

But it only sounds like that – in practice, there is only one difference to conventional battery storage: filling with the vanadium electrolyte, and that takes less than an hour.

In total, a redox flow installation at the STORAC takes three to six hours, depending on local conditions.

Here's how it works:

1 - Check delivery for completeness and integrity

2 - Remove covers and transport storage to the installation site

3 - Fill tanks with vanadium electrolyte via a transfer pump

- The electrolyte is supplied in 10 litre canisters

4 - Pour in paraffin oil to prevent the electrolyte from reacting with oxygen

5 - Electrical connection of the storage tank

- Mounting the interface module on the distributor and connecting the Ethernet cable

- Connect interface module with Modbus cable

- Connection to the mains

6 - Download Prolux App

7 - Start initial commissioning via app

8 - Reassemble covers

Ready!

At present, the widely adopted technology in electrochemical energy storage stations is still lithium iron phosphate batteries. In the large-scale energy storage market, which often involves huge investments, any combustion or explosion incidents at energy storage stations would not only have significant economic impacts but even carry certain political implications. According to public reports, there are over five thousand lithium battery energy storage stations globally (excluding residential ones), but experienced over seventy fire incidents, equating to a fire probability of approximately 1.52%.

Although China has a substantial number of lithium battery energy storage stations with a relatively lower accident rate。 But this is primarily due to: “we don’t dare to use it!”The actual utilization rate of lithium battery energy storage systems in China is currently only around 6%. One reason is the proportion of electricity generated by wind and solar is relatively small, so the impact of the unstable electricity from wind or solar to the power grid is currently manageable. Additionally, due to frequent accidents in large-scale lithium battery energy storage stations, power generation companies are reluctant to use lithium battery energy storage at high frequencies. As the future installed new energy generation plants continue to grow, the importance of safe and reliable energy storage systems will become increasingly evident.

Before 2020, due to limitations in the large-scale energy storage market, there were not many vanadium redox flow battery enterprises worldwide. Only 3-4 companies existed, such as Sumitomo in Japan, Dalian Rongke, BigPawer, and Beijing Puneng, which had long been dedicated to the field of vanadium flow batteries and possessed large-scale production capabilities. China holds more than 40% of the global reserves of vanadium ore and has a complete manufacturing system, leading to the concentration of most high-quality vanadium battery enterprises in China. The introduction of China's carbon neutrality strategy in 2020 opened the door for the commercialization of large-scale energy storage in the country. Vanadium redox flow batteries, known for their high safety, long lifespan, and flexible configurability in electrochemical energy storage systems, gained widespread attention. Currently, the production costs of vanadium batteries are rapidly decreasing due to the gradual formation of economies of scale and increased research and development funding. In the future, vanadium redox flow batteries are expected to become one of the mainstream electrochemical energy storage systems, occupying a crucial position in the new energy market.

 

The image shows a 1MWh energy storage station module from BigPawer, which has been continuously tested for 19 months. This technology will be used in a 100MWh energy storage station project in 2024.
