Work with Xiaobian to master the three major characteristics of Solar Energy Storage Batterys
The lithium iron phosphate battery is a Solar Energy Storage Battery using lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) as the positive electrode material and carbon as the negative electrode material.
During the charging process, some of the lithium ions in the lithium iron phosphate are extracted, transferred to the negative electrode through the electrolyte, and embedded in the negative electrode carbon material; at the same time, electrons are released from the positive electrode and reach the negative electrode from the external circuit to maintain the balance of the chemical reaction.
During the discharge process, lithium ions come out from the negative electrode and reach the positive electrode through the electrolyte. At the same time, the negative electrode releases electrons and reaches the positive electrode from the external circuit to provide energy for the outside world.
LiFePO4 batteries have the advantages of high working voltage, high energy density, long cycle life, good safety performance, low self-discharge rate and no memory effect.
higher energy density
According to reports, the energy density of the square aluminum shell lithium iron phosphate battery mass-produced in 2018 is about 160Wh/kg. In 2019, some excellent battery manufacturers can probably achieve the level of 175-180Wh/kg. The chip technology and capacity are made larger, or 185Wh/kg can be achieved.
good safety performance
The electrochemical performance of the cathode material of lithium iron phosphate battery is relatively stable, which determines that it has a stable charging and discharging platform. Therefore, the structure of the battery will not change during the charging and discharging process, and it will not burn and explode. It is still very safe under special conditions such as charging, squeezing, and acupuncture.
long cycle life
The 1C cycle life of Solar Energy Storage Batterys generally reaches 2,000 times, or even more than 3,500 times, while the energy storage market requires more than 4,000-5,000 times, ensuring a service life of 8-10 years, which is higher than 1,000 cycles of ternary batteries. The cycle life of long-life lead-acid batteries is about 300 times.
