Through systematic optimization and process verification of the four core materials (ion exchange membrane, graphite felt, bipolar plate, and electrolyte) for all-vanadium flow batteries, during a concentrated research and development period lasting several months, not only was the overall material cost successfully reduced by 25%, but the performance indicators of key materials were also improved by more than 30%, truly achieving parallel breakthroughs in "quality improvement and cost reduction".
For a long time, the vanadium redox flow battery industry has generally faced the development bottleneck of "difficulty in balancing cost and performance". Improving performance often comes with increased material and process costs, while controlling costs can easily lead to a reduction in key indicators.
The Beijing Green Vanadium R&D team has focused on tackling key issues such as the synergistic improvement of conductivity and durability of ion exchange membranes, optimization of electrochemical active area of graphite felt, lightweight and corrosion resistance enhancement of bipolar plates, and improvement of electrolyte utilization rate. Through material formulation innovation and production process reconstruction, they have successfully broken this long-standing dilemma of technological and economic trade-offs.
This breakthrough in the material system provides solid support for the iterative upgrading of the green vanadium Vstorage series of energy storage products towards higher energy density, longer cycle life, and stronger environmental adaptability.
During this technological breakthrough, the company simultaneously completed the intellectual property layout for related material improvement plans, preparation processes, and system integration technologies, forming a core technology system with independent intellectual property rights. This not only strengthens the technological competitive advantage of the enterprise but also lays a solid foundation for subsequent continuous innovation and industrial cooperation.
