Among the enduring challenges of storing energy—for wind or solar farms, or backup storage for the energy grid or data ...

Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have designed a playing card-sized mini-flow battery aimed at accelerating the pace of discovery of new materials for energy storage.

A recent study stresses the need for a chemistry-neutral battery roadmap beyond 2030 to accelerate the shift toward ...

Flow-style batteries are already demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage used to capture the excess output of grid-scale wind and solar plants for later use. A rapid ...

RICHLAND, Wash.—Sometimes, in order to go big, you first have to go small. That’s what researchers at the Department of Energy’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have done with their latest ...

Under the dual carbon goals of peaking carbon emissions and achieving carbon neutrality, the share of renewable energy is set to continue rising, with new types of energy storage being key to the high ...

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University are scaling up a prototype iron-flow battery to provide cleaner and cheaper power when renewable energy sources are ebbing or demand is peaking. The ...

ESS's CEO, Eric Dresselhuys (center, wearing a blue jacket), taking a group of reporters on a tour of the company's Energy Warehouse product for commercial and industrial customers and for mini-grid ...

You might have heard the common claim that electric cars aren’t really green – that their lithium-ion batteries rely on “blood” minerals such as cobalt, mined in terrible conditions. The critique had ...

Flow-style batteries are demonstrating the potential to dramatically cut the cost of energy storage. A rapid prototyping and test system developed by Pacific Northwest National Labs uses a ...
