Applications

Mobile energy solutions will be needed to power drones for defence, remote sensing, warehouse and inventory management, and applications in the delivery, agriculture, and mining sectors. The energy density improvements expected from lithium-sulfur batteries will allow for longer-range flights for drones in all applications.

The massively improved energy output means short-range flights in hybrid e-planes can become achievable. Air travel is one of the biggest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, making this technology essential for a green economy future.

As access to cheap renewable energy increases, electric flight routes will rise, enabled by next-generation technologies such as lithium-sulfur batteries.

With anticipated higher energy densities, enhanced lithium batteries should provide a longer travel range and recharge faster, helping to accelerate widespread adoption of electric vehicles.

Next-generation lithium batteries are anticipated to boost green logistics. As uptake increases, production costs are expected to drop along with carbon emissions, delivering wins for the economy and the environment – and taking us towards a more sustainable future.

Home UPS requires wide temperature range operation, capability for complete discharge, long cycle life and cost effectiveness.

Stand-alone power systems require wide temperature range operation, capability for complete discharge, long cycle life and cost-effectiveness.

C&I systems require wide temperature range operation, capability for complete discharge, long cycle life and cost-effectiveness.

Utility scale stationary ESS requires good energy density, durability, and cost-effective solutions.

Reserve power applications typically require the battery to be maintained in a charged state until required. Core requrements include high-power densities, fast response times, long cycle life and suitability for extended storage at top-of-charge.
