Are vanadium flow batteries the future of energy storage?

“Due to their inherent advantages in large-scale energy storage, vanadium flow batteries have the potential to service the growing need for grid-scale energy storage solutions in Australia, supporting and stabilising the national electricity grid as renewable energy generators continue to roll out,” Professor Talbot said.

How does a vanadium flow battery work?

The key component of a vanadium flow battery is the stack, which consists of a series of cells that convert chemical energy into electrical energy. The cost of the stack is largely determined by its power density, which is the ratio of power output to stack volume. The higher the power density, the smaller and cheaper the stack.

What are the benefits of a vanadium flow battery?

Those benefits include longer life, very little degradation of performance over time, and a much wider operating temperature range. All of which significantly reduces the cost of ownership. The vanadium flow battery (VFB) is a rechargeable electrochemical battery technology that stores energy in a unique way.

How long does a vanadium flow battery last?

“One interesting facet of the Vanadium flow battery is that at the end of its life (20 years or even longer), the vanadium electrolyte will have the same value to the steel industry that it has today, and it’s easy to recycle — that means that the residual value of the electrolyte is greater than any other battery technology.

Is vanadium a viable energy storage technology?

Although vanadium is mostly used to strengthen steel today, it may hold promise in the transition to sustainable energy according to the Clean Energy Institute. Vanadium flow batteries are a viable technology for large-scale energy storage. Tailings will be maintained of the vanadium-bearing concentrate from the Balama graphite mine.
