Abstract
The zinc bromide reduction oxidation (REDOX) battery is one type of flow battery that can be used in renewable energy or demand side management applications such as energy time shifting. Many flow battery models and laboratory experiments have been widely discussed by various organizations. This paper focuses on the measured energy performance of a 50 kWh grid connected zinc bromide battery storage system and the factors that impact on its overall energy efficiency from the perspective of an end user.
