Scientists at the Department of Energy's Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) developed a highly reversible, water soluble material based on phenazine. The compound could serve as an alternative to vanadium, which is used in grid-scale batteries to store electricity. Like a savings account. . Power systems worldwide are experiencing higher levels of variable renewable energy (VRE) as wind and solar power plants connect to the grid. This trend is expected to continue as costs for VRE resources decline and jurisdictions pursue more ambitious power sector transformation strategies with. . Energy from fossil or nuclear power plants and renewable sources is stored for use by customers. Energy is released when the bonds in chemical compounds, like petroleum, coal, and natural gas, are broken.
