Yep john, Redox flow batteries are pretty amazing, the favoured element not decided on yet - vanadium is one, sodium another. The key thing about them is the ability to charge and discharge at the same time, making them the holy grail for renewables. Can imagine in not too distant future, majority of stationary energy storage will be RFBs. Particularly exciting for somewhere like africa, loads of solar power and RFB networks wouldn’t need the electric grid system and the inefficiencies they incur. Can build the infrastructure pretty much from scratch.
