@alpha_defense That’s because if we buy tomorrow’s technology at any price it will be code locked and over the air interface will stop us firing as friends and foe will be monitored. DoD keeps master codes. Our scientists are not learning these and govt feels it’s not necessary.
@VSUNEnergy@CosmosMagazine Well we are already doing it by connecting two reservoirs but there is still lot to be done. Cross contamination, then concentration changes and then electrolyte imbalances , one tank going in overflow and lots of problems with oxidation and hydrogen evolution.
@wil54659648@VSUNEnergy Cost optimisation, mass production with sustainable supply chains. Also awareness about stationary vs mobility battery systems. Awareness about circulatory economy and its subsequent effects.Also overlooked environmental impacts from mining till recycling, needs to be considered.
@VSUNEnergy Yes indeed and that’s what it enables for circular economy. States and it’s authority needs to understand it. In India it’s like gold is used for ornaments and then it can be recycled in hard times ( just a example).
@MattLoszak I feel it’s been over analysed. Looks like you’re discarding the micro grids scenario. Also lots of solar energy is geographically related issues rather than blanket analysis. You maybe partially correct on some scenarios. When it comes for ESS lots of new innovations coming.
The potential use of Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries is also in various power system applications, including energy shifting, peak shaving, and power arbitrage.
