Energy density is limited by the solubility of ions in the electrolyte solutions. Also, note that as the volume of the cell components gets small relative to the volume of the electrolytes, the flow battery approaches its theoretical maximum of energy density.
Likewise, the product of the theoretical energy storage density and published energy efficiency values (ηEE) are a means to predict the real energy storage density (ev,real) achieved with this flow battery after accounting for voltage and faradaic losses. Table I presents values used to assess the Fe-Cr energy storage density.
Using the proposed approach, future advances to flow battery chemistries, including aprotic systems, can be accurately evaluated in terms of their impact on energy storage density using fundamental thermodynamic properties and available energy efficiency values.
Strikingly, the battery is capable of delivering a high limiting current density of ~7 A cm −2, and a high peak power density of 2.78 W cm −2, representing the highest peak power density for flow batteries in the open literature, which is even higher than that of commercialized fuel cells.
A key component to assessing the theoretical energy storage density of a redox flow battery is Eeq,cell, which changes as a function of a battery's state of charge (Qsoc). which is the difference between the positive, Eeq,+, and negative, Eeq,−, half-reaction electrode potentials vs the standard hydrogen electrode.
Also, note that as the volume of the cell components gets small relative to the volume of the electrolytes, the flow battery approaches its theoretical maximum of energy density. Higher capacity systems are thus more efficient in this respect, as the majority of the weight is the electrolyte which directly stores energy.
