Flow Battery Market Segment Analysis – By Industry
All-Vanadium flow batteries are expected to witness a CAGR of 35.3% as they are considered as front runner technology for meeting the growing demand in the energy storage sector. The demand for these batteries is high, especially in the utility, off-grid, and mini-grid markets. Several global companies, such as Vionx Energy, redT, Rongke Power are involved in the rapid commercialization of this technology. Vanadium is a more significant contributor to the cost of vanadium redox flow batteries than key minerals in comparative battery technologies. Vanadium flow batteries can be quite large and best suited to industrial and utility-scale applications. Also, the vanadium flow battery outcompetes Li-ion and any other solid-state batteries for utility-scale applications. In November 2019, flow battery struggled as Lithium-ion battery marched on by racing ahead of All Vanadium, Zinc-Bromide and other flow batteries on scale and cost-competitiveness, whereas, flow batteries are seen as ideal for large-scale, long-duration storage only. Preference for flow batteries is less when compared to Li-ion batteries. As the demand for renewable energy continues to grow, the demand for solutions that can help control the flow of the energy generated is also increasing. Flow batteries using vanadium as the primary element have a lifespan of 20 years with up to 20,000 cycles and no capacity loss. Therefore, energy storage projects implementing flow batteries are expected to boost the market during the forecast period.
Flow Battery Market Segment Analysis – By Geography
Flow Battery market in APAC region as held significant market share of 34% in 2020. In recent years, China, India, Japan and Australia are striving to boost their large-scale energy storage capacity through battery technologies that could, in turn, enhance electric stability. In countries such as India, China, and Japan, respective governments have laid regulations and reforms as well as initiatives for modernizing the power sector. APAC has several operational flow battery installations with large power ratings. Australia has the most number of flow battery projects for utilities, residential, industrial, and commercial applications from various players across the world. In May 2019, the vanadium flow batteries were set for grid scale project in Australia, i.e. the Canadian company CellCube Energy storage systems and Pangea Energy had signaled their intention to install a 50MW/200 MWh energy storage system in Port Augusta, South Australia. Hence these factors drive the market growth in the forecast period 2021-2026.

Flow Battery Market Drivers
Rise in production of electric vehicles
The electric car market has witnessed rapid evolution with the ongoing developments in automotive sector and favorable government policies and support in terms of subsidies and grants, tax rebates. Flow batteries have a unique capability for rapid and safe recharge of electric vehicles by electrochemical cell exchange, hence rise in production of electric vehicles is analyzed to drive the market. In 2019, Ford has invested $1.45 billion in Detroit plants in U.S., to make electric vehicles. In 2019, Toyota announced plans to invest $749 million in expanding the U.S. manufacturing facilities to increase the production of the RAV4 hybrid and Lexus ES 300h hybrid vehicles. In 2020, General Motors has looked to invest more than $20 billion in its next generation of all-electric and autonomous vehicles through 2025. Moreover governments of several countries have been investing heavily for the development of electric vehicles. In 2019 German government has committed to invest more than $3 billion to expand electric car market growth in the region. In 2019, Indian government has also committed to invest more than $4.5 billion for in incentives to companies setting up advanced battery manufacturing facilities as it seeks to promote the use of electric vehicles. Hence these investments and developments are analyzed to be the key drivers for the growth of the electric vehicle market and thereby the flow battery market during the forecast period 2021-2026.
Increasing investment in renewable energy
Storing renewable energy is one of the major applications of flow battery. Countries such as US, India, China, and Japan have been revising their energy policies to embrace a considerable portion of energy generation sourced from renewable energy resources that includes wind and solar.
