Battery Technology Using Quinones

[Soren]

Pretty cool story with regards to battery technology. Basically the days of traditional power plants are likely numbered as battery technology, which is one of the biggest barriers to renewable energy, is set to take a massive leap forward.

There are a number of different methods and technologies in development but one of the leading ones is an "organic flow" battery that uses Quinones.

Here is the article about batteries and a specific summary of the Quinone organic flow battery.

I agree! bunch of countries are using a variance of this technology already, Google Flow battery, just amazing! and Cheap! FYI this technology was invented in the late 1800's! Industrial technology suppression !!! I want a flow battery!



"Volta"figured this out long long time ago!

When Was the Battery Invented?
