SLRFBs, an allied technology with reports emerging that spent lead-acid batteries can be utilised to make electrolytes to develop SLRFBs, offer a good supply chain of raw materials. In addition to its similarity to the lead-acid battery industry, lead and lead dioxide deposition are known in the electroplating and water treatment industries.
Lead-acid systems dominate the global market owing to simple technology, easy fabrication, availability, and mature recycling processes. However, the sulfation of negative lead electrodes in lead-acid batteries limits its performance to less than 1000 cycles in heavy-duty applications.
Although lead acid batteries are an ancient energy storage technology, they will remain essential for the global rechargeable batteries markets, possessing advantages in cost-effectiveness and recycling ability.
The lead-acid battery is the oldest and most widely used rechargeable electrochemical device in automobile, uninterrupted power supply (UPS), and backup systems for telecom and many other applications. Such a device operates through chemical reactions involving lead dioxide (cathode electrode), lead (anode electrode), and sulfuric acid .
Lead acid battery systems are used in both mobile and stationary applications. Their typical applications are emergency power supply systems, stand-alone systems with PV, battery systems for mitigation of output fluctuations from wind power and as starter batteries in vehicles.
The behaviour of Li-ion and lead–acid batteries is different and there are likely to be duty cycles where one technology is favoured but in a network with a variety of requirements it is likely that batteries with different technologies may be used in order to achieve the optimum balance between short and longer term storage needs. 6.

The transition from Lead Acid battery to Lithium Ion battery: …
A battery is known to be rendered useless if its capacity reaches to 80% of its rated capacity. A typical lead acid battery runs for 300~500 cycles which means that it need to be replaced between every 1~2 years. A lithium ion battery on the other hand runs between 1,500 to 2,500 cycles which is almost 5 times more than the lead acid battery.
