Flow battery
The fundamental difference between conventional and flow batteries is that energy is stored in the electrode material in conventional batteries, while in flow batteries it is stored in the electrolyte.

A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after reduction–oxidation), is a type of electrochemical cell where chemical energy is provided by two chemical components dissolved in liquids that are pumped through the system on separate sides of a membrane. Ion transfer inside the cell (accompanied by current flow through an external circuit) occurs across the membrane while the liquids circulate in their respective spaces.
Power is determined by the size and number of cells, energy by the amount of electrolyte. Their low energy density makes flow batteries unsuited for mobile or residential applications, but attractive on
Flow batteries are defined as a type of electrochemical cell where the reactants are stored in separate tanks and pumped to the electrodes as needed, allowing for easy renewal of chemical reactants and
