In this article, we review the vanadium-based technology for redox flow batteries (RFBs) and highlight its strengths and weaknesses, outlining the research that aims to make it a commercial success.
Despite these advantages, the deployment of the vanadium battery has been limited due to vanadium and cell material costs, as well as supply issues.
An important feature of vanadium redox flow batteries is the independent sizing of their power and energy rating. Energy capacity, which depends on a reactant concentration and electrolyte volume, and power, which depends on the area of electrode and the number of cells in a stack, can be independently optimized to suit specific user requirements.
