Novel redox flow battery paves way for low-cost storage
Researchers Nicholas Sinclair, research engineer in chemical and biomolecular engineering; Robert Savinell, Distinguished University Professor; and Jesse Wainright, professor of chemical engineering, were part of a team that accomplished the decoupling of power from energy design by incorporating a conducting carbon slurry in the negative electrolyte of an all-iron flow battery.
Researchers focusing on building better batteries for wind, solar energy
Robert Savinell, Distinguished University Professor, and Jesse Wainright, professor of chemical engineering, discussed new research offering hope for the future of renewable energy battery storage.
