Journal ArticleDOI

Possible use of vanadium redox-flow batteries for energy storage in small grids and stand-alone photovoltaic systems

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of inexpensive active materials for use in vanadium redox-flow batteries is investigated and a cost analysis for a load leveling and seasonal energy storage system is given based on a flow battery technology well established in Zn flow batteries.
Journal ArticleDOI

The vanadium redox-battery: an efficient storage unit for photovoltaic systems

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the kinetics and mechanism for the V2+/V3+ and VO++/VO2+ couples and a one-electron transfer identified as the rate determining step at smooth surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

Raman spectroscopic study of the bromine storing complex phase in a zinc-flow battery

TL;DR: In this paper, the behavior of the nonaqueous bromine complexing electrolyte phase of a zinc-flow battery is studied by means of Raman spectroscopy over a total charge-discharge cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ FTIR spectroscopy of the Zn–Br battery bromine storage complex at glassy carbon electrodes

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrochemical double layer on glassy carbon (GC) and the anodic storage reactions of the zinc bromine battery which are the formation of a non-aqueous N-methyl-ethyl-pyrrolidinium (MEP+) and/or N- methyl-ethylmorpholinium (mEM+) polybromide phase were examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

In Situ Investigations of Bromine‐Storing Complex Formation in a Zinc‐Flow Battery at Gold Electrodes

TL;DR: In this paper, in situ reflection-absorption Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was employed for the first time to investigate these electrode processes, and it was shown that specifically adsorbed polybromide anions (Br{sub n}{minus}) formed MEM-sub n. The mechanism of this complicated reaction determines the polarization and self-discharge rate of the bromine electrode.
