technology medium true/false

Flow batteries are well-suited for long-duration grid energy storage due to decoupled power and energy capacity.

  1. True
  2. False

Answer: True

Flow batteries (vanadium redox) store energy in liquid electrolytes; power (stack size) and energy (tank volume) are independent. Advantages: long cycle life, deep discharge, scalability for 4-12 hour storage. Critical for renewable integration and grid stability questions.
