Vanadium Titanium Flow Energy Storage Power Station

What is vanadium flow storage technology?

Vanadium flow storage technology uses the flow of vanadium electrolyte across an ion exchange membrane. The advantages of this type of storage are safety, scalability and long-term operation. Vanadium electrolyte used in this battery is non-flammable and the battery operates at room temperature.

Are vanadium-flow batteries the future of energy storage?

For many years, vanadium-flow batteries have been a favored technology to enter the energy storage space in a serious way, and the London-based firm forecasts that it could become a major player in the market, second to lithium-ion batteries.

Where is Dalian flow battery energy storage peak-shaving power station located?

The 100 MW Dalian Flow Battery Energy Storage Peak-shaving Power Station, with the largest power and capacity in the world, has finished its system joint debugging in Dalian, China, and was put into operation in late October.

How can energy storage technology improve power supply reliability in Dalian?

The project’s first phase scale is 100 MW/400 MWh. The power station can meet the daily electricity demand of about 200,000 residents, thus reducing power supply pressure during peak periods and improving power supply reliability in southern Dalian. Energy storage technology can help power systems improve their strain and response capability.
