Harvard team develops ultrathin solid oxide fuel cell with some internal energy storage

Green Car Congress

Because fuel cells are not intrinsically capable of storing energy, when fuel supply is exhausted the energy output is interrupted. To store energy, the fuel cell could be coupled to an external charge storing device such as a battery but this increases the total weight and volume of the system. —Overmeere et al.

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

Green Car Congress

AQDSH 2 refers to the reduced form of AQDS. Quinones are naturally abundant, inexpensive, small organic molecules, and similar to molecules that store energy in plants and animals. Flow batteries store energy in chemical fluids contained in external tanks, as with fuel cells, instead of within the battery container itself.
