Expert Panel: The Future of Flow Batteries

Thursday, May 25 | 12:00 P.M. - NOON (PST)
PANEL MODERATOR: Vince Sprenkle (PNNL)

Increasing demand for lithium-ion batteries across all sectors has presented an opportunity for flow batteries to become a leading grid-scale storage solution. But are flow batteries ready to deliver on the opportunity? Can flow batteries deliver on both the current four-to-eight-hour applications as well as emerging long duration (more than 10 hours)? PNNL senior advisor Vince Sprenkle will host industry experts who will discuss the maturation and future deployment opportunities for this technology.
