1. Technical description A lead-acid battery system is an energy storage system based on electrochemical charge/discharge reactions that occur between a positive electrode that contains lead dioxide (PbO 2) and a negative electrode that contains spongy lead (Pb).
In principle, lead–acid rechargeable batteries are relatively simple energy storage devices based on the lead electrodes that operate in aqueous electrolytes with sulfuric acid, while the details of the charging and discharging processes are complex and pose a number of challenges to efforts to improve their performance.
Currently, stationary energy-storage only accounts for a tiny fraction of the total sales of lead–acid batteries. Indeed the total installed capacity for stationary applications of lead–acid in 2010 (35 MW) was dwarfed by the installed capacity of sodium–sulfur batteries (315 MW), see Figure 13.13.
Over the past two decades, engineers and scientists have been exploring the applications of lead acid batteries in emerging devices such as hybrid electric vehicles and renewable energy storage; these applications necessitate operation under partial state of charge.
