The excessively strong hydrogen adsorption-free energy of VN limits the further enhancement of its HER performance. Thus, regulating the hydrogen adsorption-free energy of VN by modulating the electronic structure of VN is an effective strategy to improve the VN-based HER performance.
In this work, we design a novel static vanadium-hydrogen gas (V-H) battery that utilizes two-electron-transfer V 3+ /VO 2+ redox couple as the cathode and H 2 as the anode to achieve long cycle life with enhanced energy density.

The major negative reaction in all vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) is oxidation-reduction reaction of V3+/V2+ couple, while the side reaction is hydrogen evolution reaction (HER).

The performances of the vanadium-manganese RFB were evaluated and compared to a conventional vanadium-vanadium system. Catalytic reactors were designed to carry out the chemical discharge of the electrolytes toward redox-mediated water splitting. The essential prerequisite for the redox dual-flow battery is to select suitable redox mediators.
As demonstrated by the examples above, the vanadium in vanadium-based hydroxides plays a dual role: it acts as an active site and enhances the OER performance by modulating the electronic structures of the neighboring metal ions. The OER performance of representative V-based hydroxides are listed in Table 1.
Vanadium (V) is an early transition metal with a distinct electronic structure from late transition metals such as Fe, Co, and Ni, which has been emphasized and studied by researchers. Numerous vanadium-based electrocatalysts have been developed for the HER and OER. In this review, the mechanisms of the HER and OER are described.
