6 FAQs about [Solid-state vanadium battery technology]

Does a vanadium solid-salt battery have enough energy density?

The energy density was improved by evaporation of solutions containing the active materials, because of the effective redox reactions that occurred in the VSSB. These results suggest that the vanadium solid-salt battery has a sufficient energy density such that it could be used in electric vehicles or other mobile applications.

Can a vanadium oxide battery have a high energy density?

However, because polyoxometalates can form through substitution of protons with metal ions, the formation of some sulfate-based salt-oxide composite polyoxides is anticipated and further investigation of the vanadium chemistry should be performed to achieve a vanadium oxide battery with a high energy density. Fig. 11.

What is a vanadium redox flow battery?

They were building a battery — a vanadium redox flow battery — based on a design created by two dozen U.S. scientists at a government lab. The batteries were about the size of a refrigerator, held enough energy to power a house, and could be used for decades.

How long can a vanadium flow battery last?

The researchers found the batteries capable of charging and recharging for as long as 30 years. An employee looks at a vanadium flow battery in Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Battery Reliability Laboratory in 2021. Gary Yang, the lead scientist on the project, said he was excited to see if he could make the batteries outside the lab.

Does vanadium degrade car batteries?

Others had made similar batteries with vanadium, but this mix was twice as powerful and did not appear to degrade the way cellphone batteries or even car batteries do. The researchers found the batteries capable of charging and recharging for as long as 30 years.

Why did Yang decide to keep vanadium batteries in the US?

The Chinese government launched several large demonstration projects and announced millions of dollars in funding for large-scale vanadium batteries. As battery work took off in China, Yang was facing more financial trouble in the U.S. So he made a decision that would again keep the technology from staying in the U.S.
