The iron “flow batteries” ESS is building are just one of several energy storage technologies that are suddenly in demand, thanks to the push to decarbonize the electricity sector and stabilize the climate.
Iron-based flow batteries designed for large-scale energy storage have been around since the 1980s, and some are now commercially available. What makes this battery different is that it stores energy in a unique liquid chemical formula that combines charged iron with a neutral-pH phosphate-based liquid electrolyte, or energy carrier.
Compared with the hybrid flow batteries involved plating-stripping process in anode, the all-liquid flow batteries, e.g., the quinone-iron flow batteries , titanium-bromine flow battery and phenothiazine-based flow batteries , are more suited for long-duration energy storage.
Therefore, tremendous efforts have been devoted to exploring and developing next-generation low-cost flow batteries, especially for long-duration energy storage devices , . New flow batteries with low-cost have been widely investigated in recent years, including all-liquid flow battery and hybrid flow battery .
A new iron-based aqueous flow battery shows promise for grid energy storage applications. A commonplace chemical used in water treatment facilities has been repurposed for large-scale energy storage in a new battery design by researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.
Flow batteries, like the one ESS developed, store energy in tanks of liquid electrolytes—chemically active solutions that are pumped through the battery’s electrochemical cell to extract electrons. To increase a flow battery’s storage capacity, you simply increase the size of its storage tank.
