Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have designed a playing card-sized mini-flow battery aimed at accelerating the pace of discovery of new materials for energy storage. The approach can also help reduce costs and dependence on other nations for energy. . Tiny flow battery delivers outsized benefits, reducing time, cost, and resources needed for testing new battery materials RICHLAND, Wash. —Sometimes, in order to go big, you first have to go small. Department of Energy, have unveiled an innovative approach to energy storage that could dramatically accelerate the development of new flow battery technologies. This innovation is part of a. . Federal scientists are reducing the size of a fascinating battery as part of a materials analysis project they think can garner big results for energy storage. Success could mean an improved way to store cleaner, yet intermittent, power from the sun and wind, which is crucial to our transition to. .
