Problems solved by technology

However, the ohmic internal resistance of the all-vanadium redox flow energy storage battery mainly includes the bulk resistance of the electrode, bipolar plate, electrolyte and separator, and the contact resistance between the electrode and the bipolar plate.
This method only reduces the contact resistance between the electrode bipolar plates, and has no effect on the bulk resistance of the electrodes and electrolyte, which account for a large proportion of the internal resistance of the battery, so the improvement of voltage efficiency and energy efficiency is limited.
