Sumitomo Electric Industries has delivered a redox flow battery system to Osaka Metropolitan University’s new Innovation Academy Smart Energy Building, supporting a joint demonstration project focused on optimizing renewable energy use with artificial intelligence.

 

The project integrates Sumitomo’s flow battery with Kansai Electric Power’s cloud-based SenaSon energy control platform. The system will be used to study the AI-assisted management of electricity demand, solar generation forecasting, and battery storage optimization.

 

The demonstration is part of a government-backed program supporting collaboration between universities, industry, and public institutions.
