Yi Cui has developed nanoparticle copper hexacyanoferrate (CuHCF) battery cathode materials that demonstrate long cycle life and high power for use in grid storage applications. Short-term transients, including those related to wind and solar sources, present challenges to the electrical grid. —Wessells et al.

Despite recent advances in energy and power density, however, RFBs still require pumps—which are parasitic components and require a minium scale of operation on the order of 100s of kW to a few MWs, the OSU researchers noted. They connected batteries to an LED light, programming the holes to open and close in precise patterns.
