[...] According to a detailed description on Earth2Tech, Flow batteries are different than the other big storage concepts on the market right now, including lithium-ion cells, flywheels and fuel cells. They rely on big storage tanks full of positive and negative electrodes that are continuously pumped through an AC/DC converter. When the battery begins to run out of power, more electrolyte solution is circulated, ensuring that it always has some juice. [...]
