The use of vanadium in the battery energy storage sector is expected to experience disruptive growth this decade on the back of unprecedented vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) deployments.
Adding more electrochemical cells and increasing the amount of the electrolyte solution enables to increase power and storage capacity, respectively, of the vanadium flow redox battery. “Energy storage is an emerging sector in constant development that is reshaping the renewable energy market.
Vanadium is an abundant silvery-gray metal, primarily mined in China, Russia, South Africa and Brazil, that is used as an energy storage unit. Part one of our three-part vanadium series focuses on the invention, applications, and uses of vanadium in this capacity.
Furthermore, the battery retains more than 80 % of its efficiency, even at low charge, and 100 % of its original capacity after infinite cycles, has a long lifetime and requires low maintenance. At the core of VR-ENERGY’s technology is a proprietary ‘single-cell’ design in which each cell operates independently.
Innovative storage technologies and new fields of application for the use of energy storage systems are being researched and demonstrated in practical operations as part of national and international research and development activities.
