The secondary research was used to obtain critical information on the industry's value chain, the total pool of key players, market classification, and segmentation from the market and technology-oriented perspectives.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research has been conducted after understanding and analyzing the current scenario of the flow battery market through secondary research. Several primary interviews have been conducted with the key opinion leaders from the demand and supply sides across four main regions—North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of Europe. Approximately 25% of the primary interviews were conducted with the demand-side respondents, while approximately 75% were conducted with the supply-side respondents. The primary data has been collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephone interviews.
After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions were conducted with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from our primary. This, along with the in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, has led us to the findings as described in the remainder of this report. The breakdown of primary respondents is as follows:

Market Definition
A flow battery is a rechargeable battery in which the electrolyte flows through various electrochemical cells from one or more tanks. The electrochemical cells used in flow batteries can be electrically connected in series or parallel, determining the overall power of a flow battery system. Flow batteries are considered safer than most commonly used lithium-ion batteries as they are resistant to high temperatures and exhibit a longer operational life, making them suitable for storing and releasing renewable energy from solar and wind sources. The scalability of flow batteries, wherein the battery’s energy storage capacity can be increased by increasing the quantity of electrolytes stored in the tanks, is another advantage driving the demand for flow batteries in large-scale energy storage applications.
