Flow batteries can discharge up to 10 hours at a stretch, whereas most other commercial battery types are designed to discharge for one or two hours at a time. The role of flow batteries in utility applications is foreseen mostly as a buffer between the available energy from the electric grid and difficult-to-predict electricity demands.
A promising technology for performing that task is the flow battery, an electrochemical device that can store hundreds of megawatt-hours of energy—enough to keep thousands of homes running for many hours on a single charge. Flow batteries have the potential for long lifetimes and low costs in part due to their unusual design.
