Additional projects include a 50MW/200MWh grid-scale installation in Hubei, a hybrid lithium–vanadium system at a Jiangsu cement plant, a modular factory-level storage project at a Zhejiang glass plant, and a multi-energy campus microgrid in Xinjiang, underscoring growing commercial traction for long-duration vanadium flow storage.

Spark’s Take on TSE:SRI Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:SRI is a Neutral.
The score is held down primarily by persistent losses and ongoing negative operating/free cash flow, including a worsening cash burn in 2024. Technicals are mixed with negative momentum, while the balance sheet’s moderate leverage is the main stabilizing factor. Valuation metrics are also weak due to the negative P/E and lack of dividend yield data.
