1. An electrochemical energy storage system, comprising
a thermal chamber comprising a cavity, wherein said thermal chamber is configured to thermally insulate said cavity from an environment external to said thermal chamber, and wherein said thermal chamber has a surface area-to-volume ratio of 10 m−1;
a plurality of energy storage cells disposed in said cavity of said thermal management chamber, wherein an energy storage cell of said plurality of energy storage cells comprises a negative electrode, a positive electrode and an electrolyte disposed between said negative electrode and said positive electrode, wherein said electrolyte and at least one of said negative electrode and said positive electrode are in a liquid state at an operating temperature of said energy storage cell, wherein said energy storage cell has a surface area-to-volume ratio of less than or equal to about 100 m−1; and
a frame disposed in said cavity of said thermal chamber and configured to support said plurality of energy storage cells.
