The Ministry of Power has inaugurated India’s first 3 MWh-scale vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) at NTPC Limited’s NETRA facility in Greater Noida.
The VRFB is a contemporary technology that has the potential to emerge as one of the alternatives for more traditional lithium-ion-based batteries. The development of this advanced battery system will widen the pool of elements that can be sourced and used for making battery systems.
