A flow battery, or redox flow battery (after reduction–oxidation), is a type of electrochemical cell where chemical energy is provided by two chemical components dissolved in liquids that are pumped through the system on separate sides of a membrane. Ion transfer inside the cell (accompanied by current flow through an external circuit) occurs across the membrane while the liquids circulate in their respective spaces.
Vanadium in the VRFB forms straight forward redox couples on each side of the cell with a relatively simple one electron reaction for both. This has made VRFB an exemplar system to
