KQ-QWB series lithium iron phosphate LiFePO4 battery offers robust energy battery storage

What parameters characterize LiFePo 4 batteries?

The parameters which characterize the LiFePO 4 batteries are the SOC, Open Circuit Voltage (V OC), C-rate, discharging/charging current, internal resistance, DOD and temperature (storage and operating) [27, 28, 29]. In general the capacity degradation of Lithium-ion batteries can be classified into cyclic aging and calendar aging. a. b.

Can LiFePo 4 batteries be used for different grid applications?

In this study, the capacity degradation and lifetime of LiFePO 4 batteries have estimated when it is used for different grid applications. It is observed that the operational conditions of each application are unique and hence the performance and life of the system also change with respect to the type of application.

What is accelerated lifetime model of LiFePo 4 battery system?

The proposed accelerated lifetime model is based on real-time operational parameters of the battery such as temperature, State of Charge, Depth of Discharge and Open Circuit Voltage. Also, performance analysis of LiFePO 4 battery system has been carried out for different grid-scale applications.

What is a suitable operating temperature for lithium ion batteries?

For Lithium-ion batteries the most suitable operating temperature is considered as 25 °C and the allowable depth of discharge of the battery while maintaining the health of the battery is 70% as per the manufacturer details of the battery under study.

What are battery energy storage systems?

Battery Energy Storage Systems are becoming an integral part of the electrical grid to provide ancillary services support as the integration of intermittent renewable energy systems increases into the grid. It is essential to estimate the life cycles and capacity degradation of such BESS which are used in critical grid applications.

How long does a battery last?

Since it operates during peak hours, it completes 2 cycles of energy exchange per day. So, it is estimated that, the total life of the battery system is 6543 cycles and operates for more than 5 years under ETS operating conditions. The life of the battery may affect if it is used for combination of different grid applications. 3.
