The all-vanadium battery is the most widely commercialised RFB used for large-scale energy storage. It has a low environmental impact with regard to the environmental polluting potential of vanadium 12, especially when compared to traditional lead-acid batteries 13.
The commercial development and current economic incentives associated with energy storage using redox flow batteries (RFBs) are summarised. The analysis is focused on the all-vanadium system, which is the most studied and widely commercialised RFB.
As an important branch of RFBs, all-vanadium RFBs (VRFBs) have become the most commercialized and technologically mature batteries among current RFBs due to their intrinsic safety, no pollution, high energy efficiency, excellent charge and discharge performance, long cycle life, and excellent capacity-power decoupling .
For the vanadium system, developments are already underway in the PRoC to reduce electrolyte costs 33 and electrode processes of RFBs have been improved to the point where system efficiencies of 70–80% can be expected at the kW- to MW-scales (Table 1).
PV, photovoltaic. Taking the cost of Jörissen for a small 2 kW/30 kW h installation (as shown in Table 3), the implementation of such flow battery may lead to an amortised capital cost of $850 and a cost of stored electricity of § $0.10 kW −1 h −1.
The overall internal cost is ≈$3,300 kW −1. Jossen and Sauer estimated that 1 kW to 100 MW scale all-vanadium-based storage systems were economically feasible for specific applications. Moreover, unlike enclosed batteries, the authors considered that the economic favourability of RFBs increases dramatically with nominal energy capacity.
