title = "Utility-Scale Vanadium Redox Flow Battery for Distribution Grid Support: System Dynamics and Efficiencies",
abstract = "Collaboration between National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and Sumitomo Electric USA. Largest field deployed Vanadium Redox Flow Battery (VRFB) in the United States (2MW/8MWh). Fully characterized the dynamic losses and efficiency. VRFB system efficiency is a nonlinear function of the active power and state of charge of the system. Dynamic efficiency is impacted by three loss vectors: Chemically induced losses; Parasitic loads associated with operating the auxiliary equipment; and Losses associated with the Power Conditioning Systems (PCS).",
