Hi Dyeman, Adent, this is potentially a good read for yourself as well. I think Asteroider missed the mark when he stipulated that there are 'better Zinc Reflow battery tech on the market.' http://energystoragereport.info/redox-flow-batteries-for-energy-storage/#sthash.KtHzWCrQ.dpbs In my opinion, it's not the quality of ZBFB's that RFX are manufacturing that is of potential concern, but the overall use of the ZBFB for energy storage specific to Grids in the medium to long term future. It's the fact that globally, other alternatives are gaining far more traction for grid storage and are currently hindered by supply of the base elements.

Thanks@Burlzey It was a good read. Unfortunately that article is 5 years old. So not relavent to if Redflow is a good investment today or not. Here is a recent comparison (Jan 2019) of Li-ion to Redox battaries. https://blogs.dnvgl.com/energy/can-flow-batteries-compete-with-li-ion So ZnBr or other chemistries? I doubt any single chemistry will be the answer in all situations and there will be room in the market for all.
