The article deals with the urgent task of creating a technological and production basis for the development and serial production of energy storage systems with flow batteries and uninterruptible power systems based on them. Flow batteries are a highly efficient solution for long-term energy storage in critical and alternative energy facilities. The main advantage of the flow batteries is the ability to create a system with the required power and capacity without redundant parameters due to the fact that the characteristics of the system are regulated by independent blocks, as in a fuel cell. Among flow batteries, vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB) are of particular interest, as they have a long service life. The main elements of a flow battery are the stack, which determines the power of the battery and its efficiency, and the electrolyte, which determines the energy capacity of the battery and its service life. A stand for testing the operating modes of the flow battery stack has been developed. A 5 kW flow battery operating on an electrolyte with the addition of hydrochloric acid, which is a stabilizer in new generation electrolytes, has been tested.
