A research team affiliated with UNIST has achieved a major breakthrough in the development of cost-effective, large-scale energy storage systems (ESS)—specifically, iron–chromium redox flow batteries (ICRFBs). Known for their safety, affordability, and suitability for grid-level applications, these batteries offer a reliable power source for high-demand facilities, like data centers, all while eliminating the risks associated with flammable electrolytes.
