The use of vanadium in the battery energy storage sector is expected to experience disruptive growth this decade on the back of unprecedented vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) deployments.
The project, near Richmond, is one of a number of vanadium projects in the region. Others in include QEM and Multicom’s St Elmo project. Vanadium is used in steel fabrication but is also a critical mineral in a particular type of battery, known as redox flow batteries, that suits large scale or grid use.
Vanadium is an abundant silvery-gray metal, primarily mined in China, Russia, South Africa and Brazil, that is used as an energy storage unit. Part one of our three-part vanadium series focuses on the invention, applications, and uses of vanadium in this capacity.
Vanadium-based cell chemistries hold the promise to resolve persistent problems associated with large-scale energy storage. Commented Troy Grant, CEO, “Elcora is devoted to unlocking the full potential of solar and wind through large-scale energy storage capacity.
The consortium that will develop the project is consists of companies of recognised prestige in their sector: Gamesa Electric, Siemens Gamesa, Invinity, Tekniker, Ikerlan and the Universidad Pública de Navarra. Invinity’s new vanadium flow battery with a capacity of 1.2MWh and a power of 300kW will allow to store energy efficiently and safely.
Invinity’s new vanadium flow battery with a capacity of 1.2MWh and a power of 300kW will allow to store energy efficiently and safely. In addition, it can be validated in a hybrid plant where it will be integrated with renewable energy sources as solar and wind. Flow batteries The benefits of flow batteries are:
