Its advantages include long cycle life, modular design, and high safety [7, 8]. The iron-chromium redox flow battery (ICRFB) is a type of redox flow battery that uses the redox reaction between iron and chromium to store and release energy . ICRFBs use relatively inexpensive materials (iron and chromium) to reduce system costs .
