A flow battery membrane makeover is expected to cut costs and improve the environmental footprint, leading to widespread adoption of sustainable energy storage.
New flow battery deploys the simple sugar β-cyclodextrin for an abundant, sustainable long duration energy storage formula.
Researchers at Warwick University in the UK say they have found a way to make a redox flow battery that costs less than $25 per kWh. If that’s so, energy storage and renewable energy have just taken a giant step forward.
Canada’s TC Energy is one of the first companies to integrate a Lockheed Martin Grid Star Flow battery into its energy distribution network. The flow battery is said to be inexpensive to manufacture and uses abundant, non-toxic materials.
Scientists at the University of Southern California created a “natural” battery using quinones, organic compounds that can be found in both plants and animals.
Wind power is ready for another leap into the future, with the announcement that a new redox flow battery from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) is going into commercial development by the company UniEnergy Technologies LLC. The new grid-scale flow batteries can store huge amounts of energy from wind turbines, which basically eliminates … [continued]
