Discharge mode is shown; the arrows are reversed for electrolytic/charge mode. In contrast, flow batteries can independently scale the power (electrode area) and energy (arbitrarily large storage volume) components of the system by maintaining all of the electro-active species in fluid form.

Accordingly, to offer a product with a competitive value proposition, the industry focus has shifted to increasing the value of the product for the end user from a total cost of ownership (TCO) perspective. Cost, productivity, efficiency and fuel economy now offer the highest focus for technology investment, he said.

Energy storage has two main factors—how fast it can be charged and discharged (the spigot) and how much total energy it can hold (the bathtub). Batteries have a powerful spigot, but that comes at the cost of a small tub. But Liu says residential customers don’t see demand charges.

The optimal pathway for biomass will also depend on how efficiently other feedstocks can be converted to both liquid fuels and electricity. Specifically, the competitiveness of biomass ethanol depends on the cost of petroleum, whereas the competitiveness of biomass electricity depends on the cost of coal, wind, hydro, solar, and nuclear.

It comes upon us when we have barely started ripping out our gas boilers to make way for the expensive and inefficient heat pumps the Government is telling us to buy, or building the costly new power stations that will be needed to charge the electric cars we will all soon require. This was plain wrong.
