Iron-Air Batteries Are Here. They May Alter the Future of Energy. Battery tech is now entering the Iron Age. Iron-air batteries could solve some of lithium ’s shortcomings related to energy storage. Form Energy is building a new iron-air battery facility in West Virginia. NASA experimented with iron-air batteries in the 1960s.
How do all-iron batteries store energy?
All-iron batteries can store energy by reducing iron (II) to metallic iron at the anode and oxidizing iron (II) to iron (III) at the cathode. The total cell is highly stable, efficient, non-toxic, and safe. The total cost of materials is $0.1 per watt-hour of capacity at wholesale prices.
Could new iron batteries help save energy?
New iron batteries could help. Flow batteries made from iron, salt, and water promise a nontoxic way to store enough clean energy to use when the sun isn’t shining. One of the first things you see when you visit the headquarters of ESS in Wilsonville, Oregon, is an experimental battery module about the size of a toaster.
Can iron-air batteries be built at one-tenth the cost of lithium-ion batteries?
Form has demonstrated that iron-air batteries can be built at one-tenth the cost of lithium-ion batteries, largely because the primary materials used to make them are cheap and abundant. That low cost could make it feasible for utilities to use the batteries for long-duration scenarios, storing energy for up to 100 hours.
