Abstract: This paper discusses new developments in lead-acid battery chemistry and the importance of the system approach for implementation of battery energy storage for renewable energy and grid applications.
A large gap in technological advancements should be seen as an opportunity for scientific engagement to expand the scope of lead–acid batteries into power grid applications, which currently lack a single energy storage technology with optimal technical and economic performance.
Lead batteries are very well established both for automotive and industrial applications and have been successfully applied for utility energy storage but there are a range of competing technologies including Li-ion, sodium-sulfur and flow batteries that are used for energy storage.
Driven by the different applications, lead-acid battery is categorized into two designations: small-sealed lead-acid (SLA) battery and large valve-regulated lead-acid (VLA) battery. SLA and VLA have a low over-voltage efficiency, preventing the battery from exceeding its gas-generating potential while charging.
Each battery is grid connected through a dedicated 630 kW inverter. The lead–acid batteries are both tubular types, one flooded with lead-plated expanded copper mesh negative grids and the other a VRLA battery with gelled electrolyte.
Lithium-ion batteries remain the first choice for grid energy storage because they are high-performance batteries, even at their higher cost. However, the high price of BESS has become a key factor limiting its more comprehensive application. The search for a low-cost, long-life BESS is a goal researchers have pursued for a long time.
