What is a flow battery?

A flow battery is an electrochemical battery, which uses liquid electrolytes stored in two tanks as its active energy storage component.

Why are flow batteries limited to large-scale energy storage?

Although flow batteries have existed for decades, they have mostly been limited to large-scale energy storage because of their bulk and relatively slow charging times.
