A Dutch battery manufacturer has developed a revolutionary hydrogen-iron flow battery that could reportedly power grids for decades while maintaining stable efficiency across tens of thousands of ...

Flow batteries are rather unique. They generate electricity by the combination of two fluids flowing on either side of a membrane. Typically, this involves the use of some kind of pump to get ...

ESS's CEO, Eric Dresselhuys (center, wearing a blue jacket), taking a group of reporters on a tour of the company's Energy Warehouse product for commercial and industrial customers and for mini-grid ...

There is a gap in the market for long-duration energy storage (LDES), according to US-based manufacturer ESS Inc. – one which can’t be plugged with lithium-ion chemistry. Hugh McDermott, of ESS Inc.

A new advance in bromine-based flow batteries could remove one of the biggest obstacles to long-lasting, affordable energy storage. Scientists developed a way to chemically capture corrosive bromine ...

RICHLAND, Wash.—Sometimes, in order to go big, you first have to go small. That’s what researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have done with their latest ...

Flow batteries are a leading large-scale energy storage technology, valued for inherent safety and scalability. However, active species cross over the membrane—beyond intended charge carriers— ...

A variety of redox flow battery (RFB) chemistries have been developed over the past 40 years, with the core idea remaining unchanged. Instead of storing energy in solid electrodes, redox-active ...

Researchers in China have identified a series of engineering strategies to bring aqueous sulfur-based redox flow batteries closer to commercial production. Improving catalyst design, ion-selective ...

If you’ve been paying any attention to the renewable energy space, you’ll know that generation isn’t really the problem anymore. Solar panels are cheap, and wind turbines are everywhere. The problem ...
