Redox Flow Batteries (RFBs) are considered an appealing alternative to lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for large-scale, long-duration storage of renewable energy. A system based on earth-abundant iron as a complex with cheap commodity chemicals in organic solvents was studied, showing high efficiency in a lab-scale prototype.
