In recent years, the concept of a zinc-air (Zn-air) battery as a range extender for EVs has also been investigated. Andwari et al. analyzed the barriers for market penetration of EVs and the technological readiness of different components of battery electric vehicles (BEVs).
Lead–acid batteries have been used for energy storage in utility applications for many years but it has only been in recent years that the demand for battery energy storage has increased.
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. The flooded battery has a power capability of 1.2 MW and a capacity of 1.4 MWh and the VRLA battery a power capability of 0.8 MW and a capacity of 0.8 MWh.
For lead–acid batteries selection of the membrane is the key and the other issue is to have reliable edge seals around the membrane with the electrodes on either side. The use of porous alumina impregnated with lead has been trialled without success.
Lead–acid batteries may be flooded or sealed valve-regulated (VRLA) types and the grids may be in the form of flat pasted plates or tubular plates. The various constructions have different technical performance and can be adapted to particular duty cycles. Batteries with tubular plates offer long deep cycle lives.
Safety needs to be considered for all energy storage installations. Lead batteries provide a safe system with an aqueous electrolyte and active materials that are not flammable. In a fire, the battery cases will burn but the risk of this is low, especially if flame retardant materials are specified.
