When it comes to energy storage, most people are quite familiar with lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. They are, of course, commonly used to power cell phones, electric vehicles (EVs), power tools, and ...

Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are considered to be technology with the potential to revolutionize large-scale energy storage applications. With their long lifetimes, high energy densities, and ...

Researchers in the U.S. have repurposed a commonplace chemical used in water treatment facilities to develop an all-liquid, iron-based redox flow battery for large-scale energy storage. Their ...

Flow-style batteries are already demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage used to capture the excess output of grid-scale wind and solar plants for later use. A rapid ...

Flow-style batteries are demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage. A rapid prototyping and test system developed by Pacific Northwest National Labs uses a ...
