Abstract

Redox flow battery systems having a supporting solution that contains Clions can exhibit improved performance and characteristics. Furthermore, a supporting solution having mixed SOand Clions can provide increased energy density and improved stability and solubility of one or more of the ionic species in the catholyte and/or anolyte. According to one example, a vanadium-based redox flow battery system is characterized by an anolyte having Vand Vin a supporting solution and a catholyte having Vand Vin a supporting solution. The supporting solution can contain Clions or a mixture of SOand Clions.
