TY  - PAT
AB - The present invention generally relates to the field of devices which are capable of storing and delivering electricity. In particular, the invention relates to a hybrid redox flow battery (HyRFB) capable of operating in a power delivery mode in which it generates electrical power by the reaction of electrochemically active species at a first and second electrode and in an energy storage mode in which it consumes electrical power to generate at least one electrochemically active species, the HyRFB comprising: • a reversible first electrode in a first electrode compartment containing a first aqueous electrolyte, • a reversible second electrode in a second electrode compartment containing a second aqueous electrolyte; and • a conduit arrangement configured, in said power delivery mode, for carrying electrochemically active species to the first electrode and, in an energy storage mode, for carrying generated electrochemically active species away from the first electrode; wherein the second electrode comprises a material that is capable of reversibly taking up and releasing alkali metal ions or alkaline earth metal ions during the said modes of operation, and wherein the second electrolyte comprises the alkali metal ions or the alkaline earth metal ions.
