A new iron-based aqueous flow battery shows promise for grid energy storage applications. A commonplace chemical used in water treatment facilities has been repurposed for large-scale energy storage in a new battery design by researchers at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.
Iron-based flow batteries designed for large-scale energy storage have been around since the 1980s, and some are now commercially available. What makes this battery different is that it stores energy in a unique liquid chemical formula that combines charged iron with a neutral-pH phosphate-based liquid electrolyte, or energy carrier.
Our first commercial product is an iron-air battery system that can cost-effectively store and discharge energy for up to 100 hours. Unlike lithium-ion batteries, which can only provide energy for a few hours at a time due to their relatively high costs, iron-air batteries can deliver energy for multiple days at a time.
Iron-air batteries work by taking advantage of the rusting process of iron. They aren’t a new technology, but they have yet to be commercialized. When an iron-air battery discharges, iron metal combines with oxygen, forming iron oxide (rust) and releasing electrons. This flow of electrons provides energy in the form of electricity.
Form has demonstrated that iron-air batteries can be built at one-tenth the cost of lithium-ion batteries, largely because the primary materials used to make them are cheap and abundant. That low cost could make it feasible for utilities to use the batteries for long-duration scenarios, storing energy for up to 100 hours.
Lithium-ion batteries—which dominate the battery market—aren’t a great solution since they are expensive, have less storage capacity, and may have a shorter lifespan than iron-air batteries. Today, fossil fuels are often burned to compensate for gaps in production, exacerbating climate change.
