RE: New York Setting the Pace for Accelerated Growth in Renewable Energy, with New Battery Tech18 Mar 2020 13:41
A few snippets of quality information from the article!
The electrolyte can be re-used ad infinitum, as vanadium in the electrolyte is recovered and re-used later for other applications including as a strengthening alloy for steel.
The batteries are also appealing due to their non-flammable, non-explosive nature, and their complete lack of degradation due to cycling, partial charging, or time with a 100% depth of discharge. These batteries are projected for a 20-year lifetime.
The VRFB technology’s complete lack of “thermal runaway” risk—the risk that causes a fire in a battery, inherent in solid-state batteries.
All the above really highlighting all we have been trying to showcase for Flow!
Just need to get the world virus free to allow the concept more readily accepted in the energy markets!
Keep safe!
