Researchers at Case Western Reserve University are scaling up a prototype iron-flow battery to provide cleaner and cheaper power when renewable energy sources are ebbing or demand is peaking. The ...

As energy costs rise and battery costs drop, installing batteries with longer capacity can make sense for facilities that want to cover blackouts and use time-of-use arbitrage to avoid higher rates, ...

Among the enduring challenges of storing energy—for wind or solar farms, or backup storage for the energy grid or data ...

Flow-style batteries are already demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage used to capture the excess output of grid-scale wind and solar plants for later use. A rapid ...

Solid-state batteries could be safer and more energy-dense than today’s lithium-ion technology, but finding materials that allow ions to move quickly through solid electrolytes has been difficult.

Researchers investigate flow batteries for storing Minnesota’s renewable energy. Researchers are exploring ways to store renewable energy in large-flow batteries that are made without the need to mine ...

RICHLAND, Wash.—Sometimes, in order to go big, you first have to go small. That’s what researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have done with their latest ...
