Depends one the cost and environmental impact. I don't know anything about the compounds they used and anyway they're still experimental and could be replaced by others. But in stationary settings where size isn't an issue they can lose substantial capacity upfront and still be viable if they can be cheaply produced and don't involve complicated steps like in lithium mining for example.
- HPsquared 3y agoFlow batteries are better suited for stationary applications, I think. Liquids lend themselves to large-scale processing.
- Turskarama 3y agoFlow batteries are pretty good but I think if the dirt cheap "heavy" chemistries such as liquid metal and iron-air take off then not needing any moving parts and having no risk of leaks is an advantage.
