This technology strategy assessment on flow batteries, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.
Flow battery developers must balance meeting current market needs while trying to develop longer duration systems because most of their income will come from the shorter discharge durations. Currently, adding additional energy capacity just adds to the cost of the system.
The Framework Team interviewed 26 flow battery subject matter experts (SMEs) who represented 20 organizations, ranging from industry groups (e.g., ESS, Inc., Lockheed Martin Corporation) to vendors (e.g., Primus Power, Largo Inc.) and National Laboratories (e.g., SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory).
The principle of the flow battery system was first proposed by L. H. Thaller of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration in 1974, focusing on the Fe/Cr system until 1984.
Valuation of Long-Duration Storage: Flow batteries are ideally suited for longer duration (8+ hours) applications; however, existing wholesale electricity market rules assign minimal incremental value to longer durations.
