For regions where vanadium consumption far exceeds production, which is true of most of North America, Europe, Japan, India, and East Asia, VFBs can serve as “working” reserves of vanadium while realizing the functionality of energy storage.
When the economic value from the need to bridge vanadium scarcity or insufficient vanadium supply to meet critical needs outweighs the need for energy arbitrage, these vanadium reserves can be effectively and readily accessed, thus buffering demand for vanadium.
Vanadium flow batteries (VFBs) are a long-duration energy storage (LDES) technology at the forefront of grid stabilization and decarbonization. Alleviating materials criticality and addressing supply-chain risks of vanadium are key to sustaining the growth of VFB deployment.
Ultimately, price mechanisms are of paramount importance and if VFBs achieve commercial liftoff and provide value to end users, price increases of vanadium are anticipated to incentivize a supply response in due course.
From a supply-chain perspective, vanadium is subject to geopolitical, economic, and technological constraints that impact its availability and price. Though vanadium has historically been closely
