A flow battery is an electrical storage device that is a cross between a conventional battery and a fuel cell. (See BU-210: How does the Fuel Cell Work?) Liquid electrolyte of metallic salts is pumped through a core that consists of a positive and negative electrode, separated by a membrane.
The capacity is a function of the amount of electrolyte and concentration of the active ions, whereas the power is primarily a function of electrode area within the cell. Similar to lithium-ion cells, flow battery cells can be stacked in series to meet voltage requirements. However, the electrolyte tanks remain external to the system.
