However, lithium batteries offer better energy efficiency, longer lifespan, and higher energy density. Energy Density Lithium batteries outperform lead-acid batteries in energy density.
Battery storage is becoming an increasingly popular addition to solar energy systems. Two of the most common battery chemistry types are lithium-ion and lead acid. As their names imply, lithium-ion batteries are made with the metal lithium, while lead-acid batteries are made with lead. How do lithium-ion and lead acid batteries work?
Table 1 shows applications of Lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries for real large-scale energy storage systems and microgrids. Lithium-ion batteries can be used in electrical systems for the integration of renewable resources, as well as for ancillary services.
Most lithium-ion batteries are 95 percent efficient or more, meaning that 95 percent or more of the energy stored in a lithium-ion battery is actually able to be used. Conversely, lead acid batteries see efficiencies closer to 80 to 85 percent.
