Interest in the advancement of energy storage methods have risen as energy production trends toward renewable energy sources. Vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) are one of the emerging energy storage techniques being developed with the purpose of effectively storing renewable energy.
Since vanadium can exsist in four different oxidation states, the positive half cell employs VO2 + /VO 2+ while the negative half cell contains V 2 + /V 3 +. When the vanadium battery is charged, the VO 2 + ions in the positive half cell are converted to VO 2+ ions when electrons are removed from the positive terminal of the battery.
Sukkar and Skyllas-Kazacos, (2003) showed that a vanadium redox flow battery with 2 M vanadium solution in the negative half cell and 2 M vanadium solution in the positive half cell, both using a sulfuric acid with 5 M total sulfate content as the solvent, will have the following composition at a state of charge of 50%. Positive half cell:

Yuke Su, in Journal of Power Sources, 2021 The vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) is promising for large-scale energy storage, but commercial electrodes, such as graphite felt (GF), suffer from poor electrochemical activity caused by sluggish kinetics and high polarization, leading to a need for high performance and cost-effective electrocatalysts.
Since the vanadium ion is in its highest oxidation state it will act as a electron acceptor and fall back in the more stable oxidation state of 4 +. Furthermore, the vanadium solution needs to have a high acidity, owing to poor vanadium solubility in neutral solution.
