At their heart, flow batteries are electrochemical systems that store power in liquid solutions contained within external tanks. This design differs significantly from solid-state batteries, such as lithium-ion variants, where energy is enclosed within the battery unit itself.
While this might appear steep at first, over time, flow batteries can deliver value due to their longevity and scalability. Operational expenditures (OPEX), on the other hand, are ongoing costs associated with the use of the battery. This includes maintenance, replacement parts, and energy costs for operation.
It’s integral to understanding the long-term value of a solution, including flow batteries. Diving into the specifics, the cost per kWh is calculated by taking the total costs of the battery system (equipment, installation, operation, and maintenance) and dividing it by the total amount of electrical energy it can deliver over its lifetime.
The capital cost of flow battery includes the cost components of cell stacks (electrodes, membranes, gaskets and bolts), electrolytes (active materials, salts, solvents, bromine sequestration agents), balance of plant (BOP) (tanks, pumps, heat exchangers, condensers and rebalance cells) and power conversion system (PCS).
