Can Flow Batteries Finally Beat Lithium?

Cars That Think

An example, she says, is the task of balancing energy flows in the power grid. Importantly, the nanofluids are engineered to remain suspended indefinitely, unlike other suspensions—for instance, sand in water. and an expert in flow batteries. Their energy density is as little as 10 percent that of lithium-ion batteries.
