California Hydrogen Business Council says a robust P2G RD&D program should be a priority for the state

Green Car Congress

According to the white paper, an important distinction between P2G and other forms of energy storage is that P2G allows conversion of energy amongst a variety of sectors and end-uses (e.g., Constraining storage solutions to “electricity-in, electricity-out” only will increase the cost of intermittency.

Harvard team demonstrates new metal-free organic–inorganic aqueous flow battery; potential breakthrough for low-cost grid-scale storage

Green Car Congress

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. —Huskinson et al. Background. The active components of electrolytes in most flow batteries have been metals.
