Aqua Metals has pioneered a new electro-hydrometallurgy process that uses renewable electricity and recycles the chemicals used. We take that black mass as the input to our process, which is then powered by 100% renewable, carbon-free energy. We’re a little behind in that part, but we have passed the IRA recently.

As part of this, Gray and Tarascon suggest, the state of health of batteries must be monitored continuously during operation to minimize their degradation. We need new storage technologies if more renewables are to be used on the electrical grid; similarly, the electrification of transport requires much cheaper and longer-lasting batteries.

Flow batteries are safe, stable, long-lasting, and easily refilled, qualities that suit them well for balancing the grid, providing uninterrupted power, and backing up sources of electricity. The design returned to life in the mid-20th century, was developed for possible use on a moon base, and was further improved for use in grid storage.

The batteries that use sodium instead of the pricey and rare lithium are the ones that are the closest to being on the market. The charge point operator (CPO) can store grid energy when it is affordable or locally produced solar energy and utilise it as backup power for rapid DC charging or during peak hours when electricity is costly.
