GE and Berkeley Lab developing water-based high energy density flow battery for EVs

Green Car Congress

Conceptual design of a water-based flow battery GE scientists are researching as part of ARPA-E’s RANGE program. Researchers from GE and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) are developing a water-based flow battery targeted at EVs. The DOE wants a battery that can power a car for 240 miles; we think we can exceed that.
