As the pressure to decarbonize electricity grids mounts, so does the need to have long-term storage options for power generated from renewables. While rechargeable batteries are the solution of choice for consumer-level use, they are impractical for grid-scale consideration.

In theory, they should be a good choice for applications, such as storing surplus energy from renewables. He adds that non-flow technologies likely "have lower investment cost but the energy throughput is lower. Our aim is to firm renewables, making solar and wind into baseload generation." So we will have to see."

While a conventional cathode stores ions between the layers of its molecular structure (intercalation) the metal fluorides store them via a reversible electrochemical reaction, called a conversion reaction. A patent related to this work was filed in January of this year, titled “High-Energy Cathodes for Lithium Rechargeable Batteries.”
