Executive SummaryDiscussionPractical ChallengesConclusion
The zinc bromine battery is a hybrid redox flow battery, because much of the energy is stored by plating zinc metal as a solid onto the anode plates in the electrochemical stack during charge. Thus, the total energy storage capacity of the system is dependent on both the stack size electrode area and the size of the electrolyte storage reservoirs. As such, the power and energy ratings of the zinc bromine flow battery are not fully decoupled. The zinc bromine flow battery was developed by ExSee more on
