Benefiting from the uniform zinc plating and materials optimization, the areal capacity of zinc-based flow batteries has been remarkably improved, e.g., 435 mAh cm -2 for a single alkaline zinc-iron flow battery, 240 mAh cm -2 for an alkaline zinc-iron flow battery cell stack , 240 mAh cm -2 for a single zinc-iodine flow battery .
The history of zinc-based flow batteries is longer than that of the vanadium flow battery but has only a handful of demonstration systems. The currently available demo and application for zinc-based flow batteries are zinc-bromine flow batteries, alkaline zinc-iron flow batteries, and alkaline zinc-nickel flow batteries.
A novel redox zinc-nickel flow battery system with single flow channel has been proposed recently. This single flow zinc-nickel battery system provides a cost-effective solution for grid energy storage because not only does it possess high efficiency and long life cycle, it also has no requirement for the expensive ion exchange membranes.
With super high energy density, long cycling life, and a simple structure, a ZISFB becomes a very promising candidate for large scale energy storage and even for power batteries. A zinc–iodine single flow battery (ZISFB) with super high energy density, efficiency and stability was designed and presented for the first time.
Since its proposal in 2006, the Zinc–Nickel single flow battery has made significant advancements in large-scale domestic and international production. The battery has undergone extensive research and testing, including principle verification and small-scale pilot tests, resulting in a battery cycle life that exceeds 10,000 cycles.
Currently, three generations of large-scale Zinc–Nickel single flow batteries have been developed, with the first generation being successfully produced by Zhejiang Yuyuan Energy Storage Technology Co., LTD . The second generation battery production line is nearing completion, with 1 MW h capacity.
