A vanadium-polyhalide flow battery was proposed by Skyllas-Kazacos et al.65,94,139–142to increase the energy density.

The concentration of vanadium ions can be up to 3 M which is higher than that in VRFB (i.e.maximum 2 M).
Moreover, the RFB has a much longer lifetime of over 10 000 cycles for 10–20 years, due to the reaction of soluble active materials that occurs on the surface of the electrode in the cell stack, without damaging the internal structure of the active materials [ The vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) was first proposed by Skyllas-Kazacos ].
