Iron–chromium flow battery (ICFB) is one of the most promising technologies for energy storage systems, while the parasitic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) during the negative process remains a critical issue for the long-term operation. To solve this issue, In³⁺ is firstly used as the additive to improve the stability and performance of ICFB.
Its advantages include long cycle life, modular design, and high safety [7, 8]. The iron-chromium redox flow battery (ICRFB) is a type of redox flow battery that uses the redox reaction between iron and chromium to store and release energy . ICRFBs use relatively inexpensive materials (iron and chromium) to reduce system costs .
Chuanyu Sun Zhang Huan The iron‐chromium redox flow battery (ICRFB) is considered the first true RFB and utilizes low‐cost, abundant iron and chromium chlorides as redox‐active materials, making it one of the most cost‐effective energy storage systems.
Flow battery (FB) is one of the most promising candidates for EES because of its high safety, uncouple capacity and power rating [, , ]. Among various FBs, iron‑chromium flow batteries (ICFBs) with low cost are attracting more and more attention due to the rich reserves of active materials [6, 7].
The study illustrates an approach to HER mitigation towards resilient Fe–Cr RFBs. The redox flow battery (RFB) is a promising electrochemical energy storage solution that has seen limited deployment due, in part, to the high capital costs of current offerings.
Thanks to the chemical characteristics of the iron and chromium ions in the electrolyte, the battery can store 6,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity for six hours. A company statement says that iron-chromium flow batteries can be recharged using renewable energy sources like wind and solar energy and discharged during high energy demand.
