A lithium-ion flow battery is a flow battery that uses a form of lightweight lithium as its charge carrier. The flow battery stores energy separately from its system for discharging. The amount of energy it can store is determined by tank size; its power density is determined by the size of the reaction chamber. Dissolving a material changes its chemical behavior significantly. Some flow batteries suspend grains of solid material in a liquid, which preserves its characteristics, making lithium''s high energy density availa
