Technical FAQs 4

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.

What are the characteristics and benefits of flow batteries?

The major characteristic and benefit flow batteries is the decoupling by design of power and energy. Power is determined by the size and number of cells, energy by the amount of electrolyte. Their low energy density makes flow batteries unsuited for mobile or residential applications, but attractive on industrial and utility scale.

How much energy can a flow battery provide?

For instance, 1 GWh can fulfil the energy demand of approximately 130,000 homes in Europe for a full day of operation.6 A flow battery target of 200 GWh by 2030 is therefore equivalent to providing energy to 26 million homes – enough to provide energy to every household in Italy, or to all homes in Belgium and Spain combined.7

What determines the energy storage capacity of a flow battery?

Volume of electrolyte in external tanks determines energy storage capacity Flow batteries can be tailored for an particular application Very fast response times- < 1 msec Time to switch between full-power charge and full-power discharge Typically limited by controls and power electronics Potentially very long discharge times
