What is flow batteries Europe?

Flow Batteries Europe (FBE) represents flow battery stakeholders with a united voice to shape a long-term strategy for the flow battery sector. We aim to provide help to shape the legal framework for flow batteries at the EU level, contribute to the EU decision-making process as well as help to define R&D priorities.

How many flow batteries will be installed by 2030?

Flow battery target: 20 GW and 200 GWh worldwide by 2030 Flow batteries represent approximately 3-5% of the LDES market today, while the largest installed flow battery has 100 MW and 400 MWh of storage capacity. Based on this figure, 8 GW of flow batteries are projected to be installed globally by 2030 without additional policy support.

How much energy can a flow battery provide?

For instance, 1 GWh can fulfil the energy demand of approximately 130,000 homes in Europe for a full day of operation.6 A flow battery target of 200 GWh by 2030 is therefore equivalent to providing energy to 26 million homes – enough to provide energy to every household in Italy, or to all homes in Belgium and Spain combined.7

What is a flow battery?

Flow batteries can moreover be built using low-cost, non-corrosive and readily-available materials. Their design is highly modular, and their parts can be almost entirely reused or repurposed. Moreover, flow batteries can charge and discharge more efficiently than comparable LDES solutions.
