The U.S. Army is testing a new flow battery from Lockheed Martin at Fort Carson in Colorado. Flow battery technology features electrolyte storage for long-duration, large-capacity clean energy storage ...

Unlike lithium-ion batteries, flow batteries can’t catch fire (as they are mostly water) and are extremely durable.

The redox flow battery — an emerging energy-storage technology — could enable diesel-powered microgrids to run off renewable energy instead. Solar- or wind-powered microgrids are a hot topic in many ...

Switzerland has started turning a deep construction pit in Laufenburg into something much bigger than an underground room.

Flow-style batteries are already demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage used to capture the excess output of grid-scale wind and solar plants for later use. A rapid ...

While many researchers want to expand the limits of the Li-Ion battery technology, people at Influit Energy work on developing liquid flow batteries. Their latest concept, which is ready to enter ...

The intermittent supply of green electricity requires large-scale storage to keep our power grids stable. Since normal batteries do not scale very well, the idea of using flow batteries, which store ...

The 15th International Flow Battery Forum (IFBF), taking place in Vienna on 24-26 June 2025, will gather global experts to discuss the latest advancements in flow batteries and their growing role in ...

The vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) technology is the most commercially deployed flow battery chemistry. However, high electrolyte costs have inhibited the wider market penetration of the ...

A new flow battery design achieves long life and capacity for grid energy storage from renewable fuels. A common food and medicine additive has shown it can boost the capacity and longevity of a ...

Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands is testing an unusual kind of battery that could prove to be a better, cheaper way to store wind and solar energy. Developed by US startup ESS, the device is known ...
