Demand for energy storage technologies is driving dramatic growth in the redox flow battery market, and with it opportunities for the ceramics community.
Redox flow batteries belong to a large and growing group of devices designed for energy storage applications.
Although their origins trace back to a zinc/chlorine flow battery used to power an airship in 1884 (1), rapid, systematic Growth in the redox flow battery market has only been apparent within the past decade.
To understand the reasons for this growth and the concurrent opportunities for the…
