While RFBs and fuel cells are energy conversion devices, fuel cells are not storage devices. Weber et al. point out that a salient feature of RFBs is the ability to separate power and energy [ 105 ]. The power is controlled by the flow cell design, while the total energy is governed by the reservoir sizes.
In contrast to electrolytic cells, fuel cells operate by converting chemical energy into electrical energy through the external supply of oxygen and hydrogen (Fig. 3 b). Under acidic conditions, the supplied hydrogen is oxidized into the hydrogen ions, generating electrical power through the HOR, as demonstrated in Eq.
