Abstract

This perspective provides a brief overview of the recent work on electrolytes with hydrogen (H)-bonding network, specifically the deep eutectic solvents (DESs), and outlines important factors to consider when adapting these electrolytes in redox flow batteries (RFBs). The redox behavior, solubility, and stability of several redox molecules of relevance to RFBs in DESs are presented, including some of our work within the Breakthrough Electrolytes for Energy Storage (BEES)—an Energy Frontier Research Center of the United States Department of Energy. Particularly, the challenges and opportunities for further development of DESs for energy storage are discussed.
