FAQS 4

Why do flow batteries have a low energy density?

Flow batteries, while offering advantages in terms of decoupled power and energy capacity, suffer from lower energy density due to limitations in the solubility of active materials and electrode capacity. The broad voltage windows of non-aqueous electrolytes in flow batteries can also impact their energy density.

Are flow batteries more scalable than lithium-ion batteries?

Scalability: Flow batteries are more easily scalable than lithium-ion batteries. The energy storage capacity of a flow battery can be increased simply by adding larger tanks to store more electrolyte, while scaling lithium-ion batteries requires more complex and expensive infrastructure.

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

The primary innovation in flow batteries is their ability to store large amounts of energy for long periods, making them an ideal candidate for large-scale energy storage applications, especially in the context of renewable energy.

What are the disadvantages of flow batteries?

The main disadvantage of flow batteries is their more complicated system requirements of pumps, sensors, flow and power management, and secondary containment vessels, making them most suitable for large-scale storage applications. The cost of an energy-storage device is a major impediment to utility adoption.
