Abstract

This paper presents some optimization approaches for redox flow batteries, which are promising energy storage devices due to their potential of providing long-duration storage at low cost. In order to compete with alternative energy storage technologies (e.g. lithium-ion batteries), flow battery optimization will need to focus on increased round-trip efficiency and ensuring outstanding flow battery durability, while utilizing low-cost material for critical electrolyte and stack components.
