Wow, this sounds like a promising concept I've never heard of before.
To me, the main three questions are round-trip efficiency, max storage time and environment impact.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_redox_battery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanadium_redox_battery mentions 75% to 80% efficiency, though I don't know how well that applies to such big systems.
