Abstract

This paper provides a brief introduction to flow battery technology as an energy storage device, with a particular focus on the all-vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB). These rechargeable batteries are well suited for reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for small commercial or multi-family residential dwellings. This paper will explore, in greater depth, the specific industrial and marketing mechanisms by which a storage battery, that does not generate electricity, is able to actually reduce CO2 gas emissions, while at the same time benefiting all stakeholders. The startup company, Ashlawn Energy, is discussed by way of example of the process being followed to push this technology into the mass market, and thus realize this technology's full potential.
