The vanadium redox battery (VRB), also known as the vanadium flow battery (VFB) or vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB), is a type of rechargeable flow battery which employs vanadium ions as charge carriers. The battery uses vanadium's ability to exist in a solution in four different oxidation states to make a battery with a single electroactive element instead of two. For several reasons,. HistoryPissoort mentioned the possibility of VRFBs in the 1930s. NASA researchers and Pellegri and Spaziante followed suit in the 1970s, but neither was successful. presented the first successful. .
VRFBs' main advantages over other types of battery: • energy capacity and power capacity are decoupled and can be scaled separately• energy capacity is obtained from the storage of li. .
The electrodes in a VRB cell are carbon based. Several types of carbon electrodes used in VRB cell have been reported such as carbon felt, carbon paper, carbon cloth, and graphite felt. Carbon-based materials have the a.

While the energy storage capacity of grid batteries is still small compared to the other major form of grid storage, with 200 GW power and 9000 GWh energy storage worldwide as of 2025 according to , the battery market is catching up very fast in terms of power generation capacity as price drops. Battery storage is the fastest responding dispatchable source of power on electric grids, and it is used to stabilise those grids, as battery storage can transition from standby to full power in under a second to deal with grid contingencies. [1].
