Safety is always important when selecting the best suitable battery technology for your project. The flow battery will have the advantage over the lithium-ion battery, as per a study of flow
Fire Risk: Flow batteries have a minimal fire risk due to their aqueous electrolytes, which are primarily water-based. This high water
Many of the components associated with lithium-based batteries are either inherently flammable or capable of reacting with air or water to generate heat and/or evolve flammable gases,
While this mixture is essential for battery performance, it is also highly volatile and flammable. When a battery is overcharged, punctured, exposed to high temperatures, or
These primary batteries are non-rechargeable and pose a significant toxic and fire threat due to the pure lithium, which is water-reactive. A recent example is the catastrophic fire
Safety: Flow batteries are non-flammable and much safer than lithium-ion batteries, which can catch fire under certain conditions, such as overcharging or physical damage.
“As the use of lithium-ion batteries increases, we hear more about incidents involving battery fires,” says Dr. Xiaoliang Wang, an expert in lithium-ion technology and a

Unlike Li-ion batteries, VRFBs are inherently non-flammable, do not degrade quickly over time, and remain stable across wide
These primary batteries are non-rechargeable and pose a significant toxic and fire threat due to the pure lithium, which is water
Therefore, while the lithium inside batteries is not the pure metallic form that ignites on contact with water, the combination of reactive lithium compounds and flammable
“As the use of lithium-ion batteries increases, we hear more about incidents involving battery fires,” says Dr. Xiaoliang Wang, an
Fire Risk: Flow batteries have a minimal fire risk due to their aqueous electrolytes, which are primarily water-based. This high water content reduces the risk of thermal runaway,
Many of the components associated with lithium-based batteries are either inherently flammable or capable of reacting with air or water to generate
Unlike Li-ion batteries, VRFBs are inherently non-flammable, do not degrade quickly over time, and remain stable across wide temperature ranges.
Battery chemistry influenced fire risk more than state of charge. Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) are widely used in electric vehicles (EVs) for their high energy density.
