The history of zinc-based flow batteries is longer than that of the vanadium flow battery but has only a handful of demonstration systems. The currently available demo and application for zinc-based flow batteries are zinc-bromine flow batteries, alkaline zinc-iron flow batteries, and alkaline zinc-nickel flow batteries.
Benefiting from the uniform zinc plating and materials optimization, the areal capacity of zinc-based flow batteries has been remarkably improved, e.g., 435 mAh cm-2 for a single alkaline zinc-iron flow battery, 240 mAh cm -2 for an alkaline zinc-iron flow battery cell stack , 240 mAh cm -2 for a single zinc-iodine flow battery .
In addition to the energy density, the low cost of zinc-based flow batteries and electrolyte cost in particular provides them a very competitive capital cost. Taking the zinc-iron flow battery as an example, a capital cost of $95 per kWh can be achieved based on a 0.1 MW/0.8 MWh system that works at the current density of 100 mA cm-2 .
Currently, the flow battery can be divided into traditional flow batteries such as vanadium flow batteries, zinc-based flow batteries, and iron-chromium flow batteries, and new flow battery systems such as organic-based flow batteries, which hold great promise for energy storage applications.
Our standardized photovoltaic power generation and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
