The vanadium redox battery (VRB), also known as the vanadium flow battery (VFB) or vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB), is a type of rechargeable which employs ions as . The battery uses vanadium's ability to exist in a solution in four different to make a battery with a single electroactive element instead of two.

Pissoort 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 demonstration of an All-Vanadium Redox Flow Battery employing dissolved vanadium in a solution of in the 1980s. Her design used sulfuric acid electrolytes,.

A semi-solid-state battery (also formally known as a quasi-solid-state battery, QSSB) is a type of that serves as an intermediate technology between conventional (LIB) with liquid electrolytes and (ASSB) using a hybrid solid-liquid semi-solid-state electrolyte. The primary goal of this technology is to improve battery safety by reducing the amount of flam.
