GG, with regard to the electric car, how practical is the VRB-ESS within this sector.

In noting the comparison between the 5KW VRB and lead acid batteries, the VRB comes in around 2.5 times heavier at some 6,800 pounds.

If I can think 'out loud', given the weight of the vanadium, is this sector applicable for VRB? Or are we talking about a much smaller sized VRB where it heavier weight would not be a great concern?
