ANALYSIS OF
FLOW BATTERIES
STRENGTH:(i)
Complete separation of power and energy as needed by
user
Page 1 of 5
(XXIII)
No toxic component or noxious fume, no
environmental problem
(XXIV)
(XXV)
(XXVI)
WEAKNESS:(i)
Most complicated system requirement of pumps, sensors,
flow and power management
(ii) Best suitable to large scale storage application with
exceptions
(iii) Construction of electrochemical cells
(iv) Technology is new and unfamiliar in the industry
(v)
OPPORTUNITY:-
Page 3 of 5
(i)
Alternative energy source on a global scale towards a low
carbon society
(ii)
THREAT:(i)
Verification test by end user for cost, quality etc. is not
available
(ii) The bottom line and operating margin are not known to
average investor to make this a favourable investment
(iii) Research is at primary stage so more innovation is
expected
(iv) Environmental impact bas to be further analysed to the
last straw in time test machine
(v) In some related technology using vanadium is available
with few countries which may lead similar to another oil war
after long time
In simple mathematics as well as matrix for strength and
opportunity are in 27 and 7 steps. So they are 27+7 = 34
positive step. In a similar exercise weakness and threat have 8
and 5 steps. So they have 8+5 = 13 negative step. So
