UK startup claims its electrolytes can triple flow battery energy density

Share

From ESS News

Kodiaq Technologies is developing organic electrolytes for redox flow batteries that it claims could achieve 300% the energy density of vanadium-based alternatives.

The UK-based startup has developed an organic electrolyte that is currently able to store energy at up to 50 Wh per liter – exceeding typical vanadium-based electrolyte energy density – and has identified a development pathway to further increase energy density.

Unlike a lithium-ion battery, redox flow batteries store charge in a liquid electrolyte which is separated by a membrane.
