Project Details

Description

The project aims to develop an innovative energy storage solution based on iron-flow technology that can provide reliable long-duration energy to marine vessels and to grid using non-toxic, environmentally friendly, cost-effective, and non-flammable iron-based electrolytes. Innovation in the use of water soluble coordination complexes of iron will allow operation at circumneutral pH. This will represent a large non-iterative step that will circumvent energy losses and the need to re-balancing cells as a consequence of plating and H2 evolution processes. Advantageously, this will simplify significantly stack construction. We aim to attain a <100 €/kWh cost for the flow battery upon scaling-up.
