Lithium batteries have established themselves as the most reliable high-performance batteries across many different industries over the course of the past many years. Lithium iron phosphate (LifePO4) batteries, which may be found in electronic devices such as smartphones, watches, computers, and tablets, have a number of advantages that make them an excellent option for typical day-to-day use. Batteries for solar panels, electric cars, and boats all benefit from lithium’s small weight and high energy density. Still, this barely touches the surface of what can be done with lithium batteries.
In today’s modern age, the applications of LiFePO4 batteries are countless. We have composed some of them in this post.
Solar Industry
Batteries made of LiFePO4 can be used to store power from solar panels and other renewable sources. Because a LiFePO4 battery is completely safe, has high efficiency, and has an extremely long lifespan.
LiFePO4 batteries are the most common new energy storage battery in industrialized nations.
Original lead-acid batteries are always replaced by a variety of 12V, 24V, and 48V battery packs.
For a Small Solar System
This LiFePO4 battery is a suitable choice for 12V/24V200Ah or higher solar systems, such as 48V300Ah.
Large Solar Systems
Modular LiFePO4 batteries are better suitable for big solar energy storage systems, such as those that need to store 50 kWh or more.
One group of the Modular LiFePO4 Battery can scale up to 50 kWh, and many groups can be paralleled. Because of the more modern BMS, it is also more stable.
For Domestic Solar System
The “power wall” kind of residential solar battery is another common option. The aesthetic appeal is a major selling point since it means it may be used as part of a home’s design.
UPS/Backup Power
Traditional lead-acid batteries are inexpensive for UPS systems. With their large immediate discharge currents, they’re also highly powerful tools. They can also be used for low-temperature discharge.
LiFePO4 batteries are no better than lead-acid batteries in these areas.
LiFePO4 batteries offer an advantage over lead-acid batteries in that their cycle life is eight times greater.
In areas where the power goes out multiple times each day, cycle life is an incredibly necessary factor.
Golf Carts and Other Slow-Moving Vehicles
Instead of Trojan motive batteries, many low-speed vehicles, like golf carts, patrol carts, and tourist carts, are now equipping themselves with LiFePO4 batteries.
The LiFePO4 battery is not only lighter and quicker, but it also performs better when the temperature is high.
Electric Vehicles
LiFePO4 batteries are utilized in electric vehicles because they are safe. Blade cells from BYD are being used in the new “HAN” series of dynasty automobiles.
CCTV and Security Measures
In the event of a power outage, a battery bank acts as a backup power supply for a security monitoring system.
Recreational Vehicles, Marine Vehicles, and Boats
LiFePO4 batteries have a charge/discharge current recommendation of 0.5C, which is significantly greater than the lead-acid battery standard of 0.2C. For these applications, LiFePO4 batteries are better than lead-acid batteries.
Due to the battery system being cycled through deep charging and discharging, LiFePO4 batteries have a long cycle life.
