Technical FAQs 4

Are flow batteries the future of energy storage?

Flow batteries, with their ability to create a more stable grid and reduce grid congestion, are considered a promising technology for energy storage. Their adoption is closely linked with the surging energy storage market and can help fill renewable energy production shortfalls.

What is a flow battery?

A flow battery is an electrochemical cell that converts chemical energy into electrical energy through ion exchange across an ion-selective membrane. It separates two liquid electrolytes stored in separate tanks. Typical flow battery chemistries include all vanadium, iron-chromium, zinc-bromine, zinc-cerium, and zinc-ion.

What makes VRB energy different from other flow batteries?

VRB Energy's long-lasting vanadium flow batteries are reliable, recyclable, safe, and scalable. What sets them apart from other battery systems is their ability to last longer than other flow batteries. Other prominent flow battery companies include Rongke Power, Redflow Ltd., and KORID ENERGY (KE).

How will the flow battery market grow?

The flow battery market is expected to grow significantly as the share of renewables increases in the primary energy mix. Despite their higher CapEx cost compared to lithium-ion batteries, flow batteries are expected to be used extensively for both front-of-the-meter and behind-the-meter applications in the next several years.
