Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) provide long-duration energy storage. VRFBs are stationary batteries which are being installed around the world to store many hours of generated renewable energy. VRFBs have an elegant and chemically simple design, with a single element of vanadium used in the vanadium electrolyte solution.
Vecco Group Managing Director Tom Northcott said vanadium flow batteries, which are emerging as an alternative to the lithium-ion batteries that currently dominate the stationary energy storage sector, are set to be a
Vanadium flow batteries are a form of non-degrading energy storage, already deployed worldwide alongside renewables and a key alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries. Together, vanadium flow batteries and renewable generation can deliver low cost clean energy on demand, even when solar and wind power generation is idle.
Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) are one of the emerging energy storage techniques being developed with the purpose of effectively storing renewable energy.

VRB Energy is a clean technology innovator that has commercialized the largest vanadium flow battery on the market, the VRB-ESS®, certified to UL1973 product safety standards. VRB-ESS® batteries are best suited for solar photovoltaic integration onto utility grids and industrial sites, as well as providing backup power for electric vehicle charging stations.
When it comes to the economics of vanadium flow batteries, the dynamics of supply and demand for vanadium, the silvery-grey transition metal which when dissolved forms the electrolyte and therefore the key component of the battery, have long been the key talking point.
Because vanadium electrolyte doesn’t degrade, it is an appropriate commodity for leasing. The customer then has an operating expense rather than a capital expense. This also provides comfort to the customer as at the end of the battery’s life the electrolyte belongs to someone else who will then be responsible for retrieving and repurposing it.
Vanadium batteries are safe and reliable because there is no harmful corrosion or degradation over time. The batteries use the multiple valence states of vanadium to store and release charges, enabling nearly unlimited charge / discharge cycles. There is no risk of combustion or thermal runaway with these batteries.
At the end of the battery’s 25+ year lifespan, the vanadium electrolyte can be reused in another battery. It might only need to be rebalanced to recover any minor capacity loss over that time. For example, VRFB manufacturer CellCube reported a ~1% capacity loss for a VRFB that had been operating for 10 years.
Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) provide long-duration energy storage. VRFBs are stationary batteries which are being installed around the world to store many hours of generated renewable energy. VRFBs have an elegant and chemically simple design, with a single element of vanadium used in the vanadium electrolyte solution.
One of the main costs affecting vanadium electrolyte is the price of moving it. Essentially when you transport the electrolyte you are moving acid and water. To reduce the cost of the battery, manufacturing the electrolyte close to the installation makes a lot of sense.
