Electrostatically driven unidirectional molecular flux for high performance alkaline flow batteries

Abstract

To mitigate the mismatch between energy availability and energy demand due to day/night shifts and seasonal variations, intensive efforts are dedicated to storing renewable energy in various energy storage modules....

The design engineering of nanocatalysts for high power redox flow batteries

“…Redox flow batteries (RFBs) as one of the large-scale energy storage technologies can adequately address the intermittency and volatility of renewable energy sources and fortify grid stability. 1–4 The redox active electrolyte is stored within the two electrolyte tanks outside the battery piles, while the electrode reaction takes place on the porous electrode inside the battery piles. Thus, RFBs are easy to scale and exhibit extended lifespan.…”
