Advancing Energy Storage: A Smarter Way to Screen Redox Flow Battery Membranes

Adrian Plummer
What if the key to longer-lasting, more efficient energy storage lies in how we test the materials at its core? In a newly published article in ECS Advances, Mike L. Perry and N. Harsha Attanayake tackle one of the most critical—and often overlooked—challenges in redox flow battery (RFB) development: membrane durability. Their work introduces a comprehensive and forward-thinking screening process designed to identify degradation pathways before they become costly, long-term failures. Membrane...
