Flow battery, as a promising energy storage system, has been interested by researchers for a long time which reveals that the capacity and performance of flow battery is crucial for the usage of inherently intermittent clean energy resources. This work briefly compares three kinds of flow battery which are the most prevailing methods to achieve energy storage. Meanwhile, China is the largest energy producer and consumer in the world, and for this reason, China’s supply chain of raw material and demand for flow battery is critical for development of flow battery. Most of current researches on flow battery are modification on electrolytes, so tailoring on the structure design of flow battery is also a method for performance improvement. At last, a new design of the structure of flow is provided for further researches.
