Overcoming the barriers related to high capital costs, new supply chains, and limited deployments will allow VRFBs to increase their share in the energy storage market. Guidehouse Insights has prepared this white paper, commissioned by Vanitec, to provide an overview of vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) and their market drivers and barriers.
Traditionally, much of the global vanadium supply has been used to strengthen metal alloys such as steel. Because this vanadium application is still the leading driver for its production, it's possible that flow battery suppliers will also have to compete with metal alloy production to secure vanadium supply.
At C-Tech Innovation we have developed a novel electrochemical technology capable of manufacturing vanadium electrolyte without requiring additional chemical reagents. This electrochemical manufacturing route is a direct electrochemical reaction from vanadium pentoxide and sulfuric acid.
Our vanadium electrolyte production system requires minimum maintenance, typically one service visit is required per year with a downtime of less than 3 days. Our electrolyte manufacturing technology can be deployed at large-scale production levels.
Vanadium makes up a significantly higher percentage of the overall system cost compared with any single metal in other battery technologies and in addition to large fluctuations in price historically, its supply chain is less developed and can be more constrained than that of materials used in other battery technologies.
