Abstract
The independent sizing of the redox system's power and storage capacity makes it particularly attractive for long term electricity storage in remote areas where solar arrays or wind generators have been installed. An at-tractive feature of the vanadium redox battery is that since there is no solution contaminat ion due to cross-mixing, after the original capital investment, there would be negligible running and maintenance costs. Since the cell can be completely discharged without any deterioration i performance, it would be ideally suited for large scale energy storage in load leveling applica-tions. A larger scale five-cell battery unit is currently under construction so that the system performance can be fur-ther tested before scaling up to a 1 kW unit. Acknowledgments Support for this project was provided under the Na-
