Among the above-mentioned flow batteries, the zinc-based flow batteries that leverage the plating-stripping process of the zinc redox couples in the anode are very promising for distributed energy storage because of their attractive features of high safety, high energy density, and low cost .
The history of zinc-based flow batteries is longer than that of the vanadium flow battery but has only a handful of demonstration systems. The currently available demo and application for zinc-based flow batteries are zinc-bromine flow batteries, alkaline zinc-iron flow batteries, and alkaline zinc-nickel flow batteries.
Large scale energy storage technology is one of the effective means to solve this problem. Zinc nickel single flow battery can be applied to large scale energy storage because it offers advantages of long life, no ion exchange membrane, high energy efficiency, safety and environmental protection.
The primary application for these batteries appears to be stationary energy storage, where the price per stored kWh will ultimately determine which technology will be adopted. Zinc-based batteries, particularly in the forms of zinc–metal, zinc–air, and zinc redox flow technologies, are well-suited for stationary energy storage.
Currently, most flow batteries rely on vanadium, which poses challenges due to its high toxicity and cost. In contrast, the next generation of flow batteries based on zinc can adapt advancements from zinc-metal and zinc-air technologies for anode development.
In addition to the energy density, the low cost of zinc-based flow batteries and electrolyte cost in particular provides them a very competitive capital cost. Taking the zinc-iron flow battery as an example, a capital cost of $95 per kWh can be achieved based on a 0.1 MW/0.8 MWh system that works at the current density of 100 mA cm-2 .
