PNNL and Invinity launch 24-hour vanadium flow battery project
A vanadium redox flow battery with a 24-hour discharge duration will be built and tested in a project launched by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and technology provider Invinity Energy Systems. The vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) will be installed at PNNL''s Richland Campus in Washington state, US.
Sustainability and safety of flow batteries
As flow batteries have a longer operational time, the embodied energy amortised over the technology''s lifetime is lower than competing technologies. Indeed, flow batteries have a very long operational life that can exceed 20 000 cycles and 20 years. During this period, flow batteries can cycle and recharge with almost no loss in power.
