Despite the significant advantage of such a system, one key limitation was the high viscosity, which makes the power consumption for pumping very high, hence decreasing the energy efficiency. Another research team in University of Virginia reported a carbon-free flow battery system. In this new system, also called , a new reaction mechanism was discover. This hybrid design offers the advantage of flexibility of flow batteries and the high energy density of lithium-ion batteries. However, the poor fluidity and high viscosity of the suspension creates a significant barrier for practical operation.
