Flow batteries can release energy continuously at a high rate of discharge for up to 10 h. Three different electrolytes form the basis of existing designs of flow batteries currently in demonstration or in large-scale project development.
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.
Considering the distribution of volumes of typical flow batteries between volume in stacks and volume in tanks, then most often the potential volume for discharge is far less than 1%. Flow batteries may vary inside their own technology community but usually they work in ambient temperature ranges.
Flow batteries are a promising storage solution for renewable, intermittent energy like wind and solar but today’s flow batteries often suffer degraded energy storage capacity after many charge-discharge cycles, requiring periodic maintenance of the electrolyte to restore the capacity.
A typical flow battery has been shown in Fig. 8. Some of the main characteristics of flow batteries are high power, long duration, and power rating and the energy rating are decoupled; electrolytes can be replaced easily . Fig. 8.

A flow battery stores energy in two soluble redox couples, which are comprised of exterior liquid electrolyte containers. During charging, one electrolyte is oxidized at the anode, while during discharging, another electrolyte is reduced at the cathode. In this way, the electrical energy is transferred to the electrolyte.
