Technical FAQs 4

Are flow batteries the future of energy storage?

Flow batteries are positioned as a prime option for long-duration energy storage, addressing the challenge of intermittency in renewable energy sources like wind and solar. Governments around the world are advocating for increased adoption of these energy sources.

Are flow batteries a good option for large-scale energy storage?

Flow batteries have numerous benefits that have made them a potential option for large-scale energy storage. They are well-suited for applications requiring long-duration storage due to their scalability, high energy density and long cycle life.

How do flow batteries store energy?

An external power source (like solar panels or the grid) forces electrons to flow in the opposite direction, causing the positive electrolyte to be reduced and the negative electrolyte to be oxidized. This stores chemical energy in the electrolytes. Several types of flow batteries are being developed and utilized for large-scale energy storage.

What are flow batteries used for?

Flow batteries have several key use cases, including Grid Energy Storage and Microgrids. They can store excess energy generated by renewable sources during peak production times and release it when demand is high, as well as provide reliable backup power and support local renewable energy systems in remote areas.
