NASA Redox system development project status
NASA-Redox energy storage systems are being developed for solar power applications and utility load leveling applications by the Lewis Research Center for the Department of Energy. The major objective of the project is to establish the technology readiness of Redox energy storage for transfer to industry for product development and commercialization by industry. The approach is to competitively contract to design, build, and test Redox systems progressively from preprototype to prototype multikW and megawatt systems and conduct supporting technology advancement tasks. The Redox electrode and membrane have been shown to be fully adequate for multikW solar related applications and the viability of the Redox system technology has been demonstrated for multikW solar related applications. The status of the NASA Redox Storage System Project is described along with the goals and objectives of the project elements.
