What materials are used to make vanadium redox flow batteries?
Image: CellCube. Samantha McGahan of Australian Vanadium writes about the liquid electrolyte which is the single most important material for making vanadium flow batteries, a leading contender for providing several hours of storage, cost-effectively. Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) provide long-duration energy storage.

What are the advantages of a vanadium battery?
A vanadium battery's active materials are present in the liquid form, and there is only one ion electrolyte. This results in a longer lifetime than other battery options due to the absence of charge and discharge of other ions. The charge-discharge performance is good, and the depth of discharge cannot damage the battery.
Why should you lease a vanadium battery?
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.
How do vanadium electrolyte manufacturers work?
Vanadium electrolyte manufacturers work with VRFB manufacturers to ensure that their electrolyte is suitable for supply, with some manufacturers insisting on particularly stringent requirements. There are three primary vanadium mines in the world outside China that are currently in operation.
Is vanadium a sustainable solution?
US Vanadium can recycle spent electrolyte from VRFBs at a 97% vanadium recovery rate. This makes the VRFB a truly sustainable solution – the vanadium resource is only being borrowed from future generations, not consumed at its expense. One of the main costs affecting vanadium electrolyte is the price of moving it.
