Abstract

The invention provides a membrane-free redox cell utilizing auxiliary electrodes that facilitate fast charging and discharging of anolyte and catholyte for electrochemical energy storage. The anode and cathode chambers are ionically separated, and electrically connected through a conductor joining auxiliary electrodes comprised of a redox material. In use, charging/discharging of the galvanic cell takes place between primary electrodes, and the redox material is immersed in the electrolyte in both anode and cathode chambers.
