Abstract

The invention provides a photoelectrochemical energy storage battery based on a water-soluble fast reaction kinetics redox couple. When the battery is charged, the photoelectrochemical reaction (Photoelectrochemical Reaction) driven by the self-bias of the narrow bandgap photoelectrode is used to realize the photoelectric energy storage battery. When the battery is discharged, an electrochemical reaction occurs to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. The invention integrates the photoelectrochemical battery and the liquid flow battery, overcomes the deficiency that the solar battery cannot realize electric energy storage, and at the same time broadens the single charging mode of the energy storage battery, and realizes the in-situ conversion of solar energy without external bias assistance, Storage and controllable utilization; water-soluble redox couples with fast reaction kinetics are used as active materials, the utilization rate of photogenerated carriers on the surface of the photoelectrode is close to 100%, and the discharge power density of the battery can be as high as 0.5W / cm 2 ; It can be scaled up and is suitable for different scales of solar-energy storage-power generation processes.
