A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after ), is a type of where is provided by two chemical components in liquids that are pumped through the system on separate sides of a membrane. inside the cell (accompanied by current flow through an external circuit) occurs across the membrane while the liquids circulate in their respective spaces.

The cell uses redox-active species in fluid (liquid or gas) media. Redox flow batteries are rechargeable () cells. Because they employ rather than or they are more similar to fuel cells than to conventional batteries. The main reason fuel cells are not considered to be batteries, is because originally (in the 1800s) fuel cells emerged as a means to produce electricity directly from fuels (and air) via a non-comb.
