This creates a challenge for the renewable energy industry, one that ESS believes iron-flow batteries can solve. While iron-flow batteries could play an important role by providing a safer and more affordable mode of inter-day storage, a truly resilient electric grid needs to be able to store days of energy. Multi-day storage would ensure that
There are currently four main types of EVs: Battery electric vehicles (BEVs): fully-electric, meaning they are solely powered by electricity and do not have a petrol, diesel or LPG engine, fuel tank or exhaust pipe. BEVs are also known as ''plug-in'' EVs as they use an external electrical charging outlet to charge the battery.
