Description | What are lithium ion batteries, what are they made of and what are the benefits when compared with other battery storage technology? First proposed in the 1970s and made commercially by Sony in 1991, lithium ion batteries are now utilized in cellular phones, airplanes and automobiles. Despite many advantages which have led them to increasing success in the energy industry, lithium ion batteries have some drawbacks and are a topic that elicits much debate. But what exactly are lithium batteries and how do they operate?</p> <h2>What are lithium batteries made of?</h2> A lithium ion battery is made up of four key components. It has the cathode, which determines the capacity and voltage of the battery also is the origin of the lithium ions. Lithium batteries have a greater energy density than other batteries. They can have up to 150 watt-hours (WH) of energy per kilogram (kg), in contrast to nickel-metal hydride batteries at 60-70WH/kg and lead acid ones at 25WH/kg. Lithium-ion faces competition from numerous alternative battery technologies, the majority of which have been in a growth stage. One such alternative is saltwater batteries. |
