Anode reaction of vanadium flow battery

This work reviews and discusses the progress on electrodes and their reaction mechanisms as key components of the vanadium redox flow battery over the past 30 years. . 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. VRB are applicable at grid scale and local user level. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-AC04-94AL85000. The battery consists of two tanks containing the electrolyte, which is pumped through the cell where the redox reactions occur.
