Project Name | MINIMAL OVERHEAD STORAGE TECHNOLOGY FOR DURATION ADDITION TO ELECTRICITY STORAGE |
Project Detail | The Primus Power team will work with the Columbia Electrochemical Energy Center to develop a long-duration grid energy storage solution that leverages a new approach to the zinc bromine battery, a popular chemistry for flow batteries. Taking advantage of the way zinc and bromine behave in the cell, the battery will eliminate the need for a separator to keep the reactants apart when charged, as well as allow all the electrolyte to be stored in a single tank, instead of multiple cells. This reduction in "balance of plant" hardware will reduce system cost. |
