different technologies while providing a more comprehensive comparison of energy storage technologies that does not discourage the use of flow batteries. To conclude, we call on the Commission to continue supporting the flow battery industry – a leading example of clean tech – as a way to meet the Green Deal objectives.
To conclude, we call on the Commission to continue supporting the flow battery industry – a leading example of clean tech – as a way to meet the Green Deal objectives. Flow Batteries Europe (FBE) represents flow battery stakeholders with a united voice to shape a long-term strategy for the flow battery sector.
Flow batteries have a unique selling proposition in that increasing their capacity doesn’t require adding more stacks—simply increasing the electrolyte volume does the trick. This aspect potentially reduces expansion costs considerably when more energy capacity is needed.
Flow battery developers must balance meeting current market needs while trying to develop longer duration systems because most of their income will come from the shorter discharge durations. Currently, adding additional energy capacity just adds to the cost of the system.
The latter figures made VFBs profitable for E/P in the range of 4–10 h. As a final comment, it is worth noting that VFB s are sold for extremely long cycle lives, which extend beyond 20 years of operation, unparalleled by other types of batteries.
