Popis: Abstract In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the potential of quinones as a promising category of electroactive species for use in aqueous organic redox flow batteries. These materials offer tunable properties and the ability to function as both positive and negative electrolytes, making them highly versatile and suitable for a range of applications. Ongoing research has focused on improving the stability, solubility, and performance of quinones, with a particular emphasis on the creation of stable negolytes. The pairing of these advancements with alternate chemistries has created new prospects for commercial applications. However, challenges persist regarding the stability of quinones in high‐potential electrolytes and the limited number of viable quinones available. Despite these obstacles, significant strides have been made, and the potential for quinones to revolutionize energy storage technology is vast. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of recent progress in this area, with a specific focus on redox potential, solubility, and stability, and offers valuable insights into the future of quinone‐based aqueous organic redox flow batteries.
