This work reports the development of a prospective electrode material for the use in vanadium redox flow batteries. The developed electrode material was a high surface area activated carbon (1857 m² g⁻¹) with a large mesoporosity (1280 m² g⁻¹) that was derived using biomass residues, Sal wood sawdus...
