The formation of V 2 O 5 precipitates not only reduces the energy density of the electrolyte, but also blocks the flow within the electrodes, damaging the VRFB and reducing its operational lifetime. Mechanism of precipitation in the positive vanadium electrolyte.
Insufficient thermal stability of vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) electrolytes at elevated temperatures (>40 °C) remains a challenge in the development and commercialization of this technology, which otherwise presents a broad range of technological advantages for the long-term storage of intermittent renewable energy.
Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) have been highlighted for use in energy storage systems. In spite of the many studies on the redox reaction of vanadium ions, the mechanisms for positive and negative electrode reaction are under debate.
