The group set the groundwork for further development. In 1979, Thaller et. al. introduced an iron-hydrogen fuel cell as a rebalancing cell for the chromium-iron redox flow battery [19] which was adapted 1983 for the iron-redox flow batteries by Stalnake et al. [20] Further development went into the fuel cell as a separate system. [11] [12] [21]
