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 .
In addition to the fully soluble ARFBs mentioned above, zinc-based flow batteries have also made great strides in scaled energy storage due to the inexpensive zinc electrolyte, which can now reach the MW/MWh level 12.
