Zhao Tianshou, academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, mentioned in his keynote speech titled “New Flow Battery Energy Storage Technology” that the existing energy storage technology has its own advantages and its own limitations. For example, the advantages of fuel energy storage hydrogen are very obvious. Due to the decoupling of power and capacity, it has the advantages of very long cycle energy storage, which can be stored across seasons, long distance transportation, and has a large space for development. But technically speaking, due to the storage and transportation problems, the cost is still relatively high, so the comprehensive benefit is relatively high. So if it’s really widely used, you have to overcome the cost problem.The research and development of the new flow battery has three advantages, first of all, it is safe and reliable, the new flow battery is a water system, the intrinsic safety. In addition, in terms of economy, the new flow battery with high current density can significantly reduce the construction cost. And it has a long life span and can guarantee the life cycle cost. In addition, the expansion of the new flow battery is very convenient, and increasing the storage tank can increase its capacity. In addition, the materials used for the new flow batteries are more environmentally friendly.
