Could a water-based 'flow battery' transform home solar energy?
Researchers in Australia have created a new kind of water-based “flow battery” that could transform how households store rooftop solar energy. Credit: Stock Monash scientists designed a fast, safe liquid battery for home solar. The system could outperform expensive lithium-ion options.
Why are flow batteries limited to large-scale energy storage?
Although flow batteries have existed for decades, they have mostly been limited to large-scale energy storage because of their bulk and relatively slow charging times.
Are flow batteries better than lithium-ion batteries?
Dr Cara Doherty, a study co-author from the CSIRO, said flow batteries store energy in liquids rather than solid materials like those found in lithium-ion batteries, making them cheaper to manufacture, safer to operate, and easier to scale.
