As the world moves towards a more sustainable future, VRFBs are set to play a pivotal role in our energy landscape. With their ability to provide long-duration storage and support the integration of renewable energy sources, these innovative batteries are truly powering the future of energy storage.
VRFBs have a higher capital cost than lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) technology but can offer a lower cost of ownership and levelised cost of energy storage over their lifetime. Yet this detail is often missed when procurement decisions are made.
Revenues from VRFB project deployments are expected to be worth about US$850 million this year and projected to rise to US$7.76 billion by 2031. That means annual global deployments of an estimated 32.8GWh per year by that later year and a compound annual growth rate of 41% in the market over this decade.
This surge in VRFB deployment is driven by the increasing demand for sustainable, long-duration energy storage solutions. VRFBs excel at providing zero-carbon electricity during periods of low renewable output and can efficiently store excess renewable energy for later use. The numbers are impressive:
The research and market intelligence firm found that while lithium-ion dominates global energy storage deployments today by market share, various attributes of VRFBs make them a promising option in tandem with existing chemistries.
Real-world applications are already demonstrating the effectiveness of VRFBs. In Japan, Sumitomo Electric’s 15 MW/60 MWh VRFB project has shown impressive results, and the company is now working on an even larger system with 51 MWh of energy capacity.
