A method is provided for restoring an electrolyte of vanadium (V) redox flow battery (VRFB). Electrolyte data of an original system are analyzed in advance. A reusable positive electrode is further equipped with a V electrolyte. A reductant for a stack of VRFB is used in coordination as an electrolysis device. After a long-term reaction with a VRFB having a high valence (greater than 3.5), an electrolyte at the positive electrode is directed out to a negative electrode of the electrolysis device; and, then, electrolysis is processed after accurate calculation. In the end, the internal fluid balancing method of the original system is combined. Thus, a harmless and quick valence restoration is processed for the electrolyte of the original system, which is a final resort for the restoration of V electrolyte.
