HyFlow addresses a hybrid energy storage system (HESS) that can meet high energy and power requirements. To this end, the researchers want to combine two different systems – a high-performance vanadium redox flow battery and a supercapacitor. A redox flow battery has a large storage capacity, but can only be charged and discharged slowly. The supercapacitor, on the other hand, has short charging times with low energy density. The hybridisation is intended to create an energy storage system that combines the advantages of both systems: high storage capacity and high power.

Carbon neutrality and climate resilience are the main motivators for research and innovation actions in energy systems in the 21st century. HyFlow forms a unique opportunity for both research and industrial stakeholders in order to develop tailor-made solutions and to explore new markets. By combining the best of both worlds, a supercapacitor and a high-power vanadium redox flow battery, this solution will unlock numerous applications in the grid, boosting its stability while decreasing the dependence on fossil fuels.

HyFlow operates along the entire value chain to optimise each part of the HESS, combining the interdisciplinary knowledge and experience of all partners. Eleven partners from Germany, Italy, Spain, the Czech Republic, Austria, Portugal and Russia work together under the coordination of Landshut University of Applied Sciences, Technology Centre for Energy. Aside from the project coordination, the TZE contributes to energy management development, and will built one of the two final demonstrator systems.
