Applications of FLOW BATTERY:
♤ Load balancing - where the battery is connected to an electrical grid to store excess electrical power.
♤ UPS, where the battery is used if the main power fails to provide an uninterrupted supply.
♤ Electric vehicles - Because flow batteries can be rapidly "recharged" by replacing the electrolyte.
♤ Stand-alone power system - An example of this is the telecom industry for use in cellphone base stations where there is no grid power available.
