4 FAQs about Iron-zinc flow battery cost

How much does a zinc flow battery cost?

In addition to the energy density, the low cost of zinc-based flow batteries and electrolyte cost in particular provides them a very competitive capital cost. Taking the zinc-iron flow battery as an example, a capital cost of $95 per kWh can be achieved based on a 0.1 MW/0.8 MWh system that works at the current density of 100 mA cm-2 .

How much does an alkaline zinc-iron flow battery cost?

In this work, a cost model for a 0.1 MW/0.8 MWh alkaline zinc-iron flow battery system is presented, and a capital cost under the U.S. Department of Energy's target cost of 150 $ per kWh is achieved. Besides, the effects of electrode geometry, operating conditions, and membrane types on the system cost are investigated.

Are neutral zinc–iron flow batteries a good choice?

Neutral zinc–iron flow batteries (ZIFBs) remain attractive due to features of low cost, abundant reserves, and mild operating medium. However, the ZIFBs based on Fe (CN) 63– /Fe (CN) 64– catholyte suffer from Zn 2 Fe (CN) 6 precipitation due to the Zn 2+ crossover from the anolyte.
