In mid-July,China''s National Photovoltaic and Energy Demonstration Experimental Center began testing VRB Energy''s vanadium redox flow batteriesat its Daqing facility in northeastern China.
In addition, the solubility of vanadium and its compounds within iron and titanium-aluminum alloys underpins a greater economy of material use in construction, thereby achieving greater energy efficiency across a traditionally hard-to-abate sector.
Here, we explore the role of vanadium in decarbonizing construction by serving as a microalloying element and enabling the energy transition as the primary component of flow batteries used for grid-level storage. We estimate that vanadium has enabled an avoided environmental burden totaling 185 million metric tons of CO 2 on an annual basis.
In this work, we highlight use cases of vanadium in three major sectors, i.e., construction (rebar and structural sections), automotive, and energy storage, while emphasizing and quantifying the carbon savings resulting from vanadium-enabled technologies.
Using this data, embodied energy and embodied carbon savings are computed and listed in Table 1. Vanadium microalloying brings about a 0.29 mMT reduction in steel consumption compared to mild steel (235 MPa). The steel savings, offset by the cost of vanadium incorporation, can be used to quantify embodied energy and embodied carbon savings.
Most of the vanadium produced is consumed by the steel industry as a microalloying agent to strengthen steel. A smaller fraction is diverted to preparing advanced high-strength steel alloys for automotive or cutting tool applications and titanium aluminum alloys for aerospace applications.
Notably, the life cycle of the vast majority of vanadium begins and ends with steel, ensuring it is continuously reused and recycled as part of a circular economy (Pradeep Kumar et al., 2021).
