Sandia researchers have developed a new family of electrochemically reversible, metal-based ionic liquid (MetILs) that could lead to non-aqueous redox (reducing-oxidizing) flow-battery energy storage systems ( earlier post ) able to cost-effectively store three times more energy than today’s batteries.

Smaller Ioxus cells offer a power density of 22-28 kW/kg, and larger cells offer densities of 12-15 kW/kg, said Chad Hall, COO of Ioxus. Energy densities for the cells are typically around 2-4 Wh/kg. Ioxus says that it is working on increasing the energy densities as well. Ioxus makes carbon-carbon ultracapacitors—i.e.,

Rated at 2.7V (2.85V surge), the new iCAP represents the lowest weight, lowest equivalent series resistance (ESR) and highest power density currently available in the market for energy storage cells, the company says. Further, Ioxus iCAP cells are designed for high shock and vibration applications such as heavy equipment or rail.
