Beschreibung
Lithium batteries were introduced relatively recently incomparison to lead- or nickel-based batteries, which have beenaround for over 100 years. Nevertheless, in the space of 20 years,they have acquired a considerable market share - particularlyfor the supply of mobile devices. We are still a long way fromexhausting the possibilities that they offer. Numerous projectswill undoubtedly further improve their performances in the years tocome. For large-scale storage systems, other types of batteries arealso worthy of consideration: hot batteries and redox flow systems,for example.
This book begins by showing the diversity of applications forsecondary batteries and the main characteristics required of themin terms of storage. After a chapter presenting the definitions andmeasuring methods used in the world of electrochemical storage, andanother that gives examples of the applications of batteries, theremainder of this book is given over to describing the batteriesdeveloped recently (end of the 20th Century) which are now beingcommercialized, as well as those with a bright future. The authorsalso touch upon the increasingly rapid evolution of thetechnologies, particularly regarding lithium batteries, for whichthe avenues of research are extremely varied.
