North America Vanadium Liquid Flow Energy Storage Power Station

Vanadium flow battery systems are ideally suited to stabilize isolated microgrids, integrating solar and wind power in a safe, reliable, low-maintenance, and environmentally friendly manner. VRB Energy grid-scale energy storage systems allow for flexible, long-duration energy storage with proven high performance.

Vanadium flow storage technology uses the flow of vanadium electrolyte across an ion exchange membrane. The advantages of this type of storage are safety, scalability and long-term operation. Vanadium electrolyte used in this battery is non-flammable and the battery operates at room temperature.

“Due to their inherent advantages in large-scale energy storage, vanadium flow batteries have the potential to service the growing need for grid-scale energy storage solutions in Australia, supporting and stabilising the national electricity grid as renewable energy generators continue to roll out,” Professor Talbot said.

US Vanadium also supplies high-purity vanadium oxides and downstream vanadium chemicals to various chemical and catalyst production applications. “We are very pleased to announce the completion of this major expansion of our ability to produce ultra-high-purity electrolyte for Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries,” said USV CEO Mark A. Smith.

US Vanadium has completed a $2 million expansion of its capacity to produce ultra-high-purity electrolyte used by Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries at its Arkansas manufacturing facility.

U.S. Vanadium produces and sells a range of specialty vanadium chemicals, including the highest-purity vanadium pentoxide (“V 2 O 5 “) in the world and ultra-high-purity electrolyte for vanadium flow batteries from its flagship facility in Hot Springs, Arkansas USA.
