About Lithium Batteries

Probably the most advanced storage technology that marketed across the globe is Lithium batteries. As the name suggested, lithium ions act as electron discharging agent that move from the negative electrode positive electrode, and back when charging. The Lithium batteries utilize an interpolate lithium compound as positive material at the electrode and typically graphite at the negative electrode. 

On the positive note, these batteries have a high energy density, and low self-discharge make it ideal to incorporate with all the battery inverters. Moreover, these batteries areequipped with safety procedures since they contain a flammable electrolyte, and if damaged or incorrectly charged can lead to explosions and fires.


A Typical Comparison of Lithium Battery Over Lead-Acid:


         Lithium Battery

               Lead-Acid

Cost

Expensive

Less Expensive

Lifespan/Life cycle

1000 to 5000 cycle or 5-10 years

500 to 1000 cycle or 2.5-5 years

Depth of Discharge

Deep discharge capacity up to 80%

Typically low discharge capacity, somewhere around 50%-65%

Efficiency

95%

(80-85)%

Charge Rate

Fast charging capability

Can’t charge fast due to overheating

Energy Density

Fit more storage capacity in lesser space

Comparative more space required
