6 FAQs about [Vanadium energy storage demand and output value]
How much vanadium will the energy industry produce in 2050?
In the longer term, the study commissioned by the World Bank Group suggests that in 2050, the vanadium demand from the energy industry alone will represent between 175% and 250% of the 2019 global vanadium production (figure 4.3 in Hund et al. 2020).
Is vanadium a critical material?
Vanadium is one of those materials. It belongs to the categories of ‘critical materials’ and ‘battery materials’ (U.S. Department of the Interior 2018 and European Commission 2020) and is predicted to benefit from high market growth projections because of its use in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) (Hund et al. 2020).
Can vanadium flow batteries decarbonize the power sector?
Vanadium flow batteries show technical promise for decarbonizing the power sector. High and volatile vanadium prices limit deployment of vanadium flow batteries. Vanadium is globally abundant but in low grades, hindering economic extraction. Vanadium's supply is highly concentrated as co-/by-product production.
Why did global vanadium production increase 20% in 2019 & 2020?
Contrary to these points, sustained growth of global vanadium production by ∼20% in both 2019 and 2020 was primarily due to expansion of co-/by-product vanadium from steel-making in China [ 73 ].
Why do we need vanadium?
Vanadium is needed for vanadium-flow batteries, potentially on a very large scale (Colthorpe, 2021; Gencten & Sahin, 2020; Zhang et al., 2019 ), in addition to the established demands for high-strength steel and electronics.
How to prepare vanadium supply for future demand?
A related method to prepare vanadium supply for future demand and therefore reduce price volatility and uncertainty to the buyer involves hedging strategies such as futures contracts, which are agreements between suppliers and buyers to transact vanadium at a pre-determined price at some specified future time.
