OSU team develops new aqueous lithium-iodine solar flow battery; 20% energy savings over Li-I batteries

Green Car Congress

The new aqueous lithium−iodine (Li−I) solar flow battery (SFB) incorporates a built-in dye-sensitized TiO 2 photoelectrode in a Li−I redox flow battery via linkage of an I 3 − /I − based catholyte for the simultaneous conversion and storage of solar energy. The Li−I SFB can be charged at a voltage of 2.90V under 1 sun AM 1.5
