Although classical energy storage systems such as lead acid batteries and Li-ion batteries can be used for this goal, the new generation energy storage system is needed for large-scale energy storage applications. In this point, vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) are shinning like a star for this area.
Interest in the advancement of energy storage methods have risen as energy production trends toward renewable energy sources. Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) are one of the emerging energy storage techniques being developed with the purpose of effectively storing renewable energy.
One disadvantage of vanadium redox-flow batteries is the low volumetric energy storage capacity, limited by the solubilities of the active species in the electrolyte. The cost of vanadium may be acceptable, because it is a relatively abundant material, which exists naturally in ~65 different minerals and fossil fuel deposits.
The most promising, commonly researched and pursued RFB technology is the vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) . One main difference between redox flow batteries and more typical electrochemical batteries is the method of electrolyte storage: flow batteries store the electrolytes in external tanks away from the battery center .
Redox flow batteries are one of the most promising technologies for large-scale energy storage, especially in applications based on renewable energies. In this context, considerable efforts have been made in the last few years to overcome the limitations and optimise the performance of this technology, aiming to make it commercially competitive.
Among the various large-scale energy storage technologies, redox-flow batteries are very promising and vanadium redox-flow batteries are the most developed and the most close to commercialization. [2,3]
