In contrast with conventional batteries, flow batteries store energy in the electrolyte solutions. Therefore, the power and energy ratings are independent, the storage capacity being determined by the quantity of electrolyte used and the power rating determined by the active area of the cell stack.
Flow batteries are a type of electrochemical ES, which consists of two chemical components dissolved in liquid separated by a membrane. Charging and discharging of batteries occur by ion transferring from one component to another component through the membrane. The biggest advantages of flow batteries are the capability of pack in large volumes.
Since capacity is independent of the power-generating component, as in an internal combustion engine and gas tank, it can be increased by simple enlargement of the electrolyte storage tanks. Flow batteries allow for independent scaleup of power and capacity specifications since the chemical species are stored outside the cell.
