The battery is a very critical component of the solar street light system, and it is also a major part of the cost of the solar street light system. Solar street light batteries are divided into lead-acid batteries, gel batteries, ternary lithium batteries, and lithium iron phosphate batteries, and the characteristics of these batteries are as follows:
| Battery classification | Battery features |
|---|---|
| Lead-acid batteries | Low cost, large capacity, high charging and discharging efficiency, but low specific energy, large volume, short service life (about 300-500 deep cycles), and frequent daily maintenance |
| Gel batteries | In fact, it is an upgraded version of lead-acid battery, which uses colloidal electrolyte instead of sulfuric acid electrolyte, which improves safety, power storage, discharge performance and service life, and the price may be higher than that of ternary lithium battery |
| Ternary lithium battery | The specific energy is high, the size is small, and the charging is fast, but the price is higher, the number of deep cycles is about 500-800 times, and the temperature range is -15°C-45°C |
| Lithium iron phosphate battery | High specific energy, small size, fast charging, long service life (up to 8-10 years), good stability, highest price, deep cycle charging times of about 1500-2000 times, wide range of operating temperature (-40°C~70°C) |
Lithium battery is a kind of battery made of lithium metal or lithium alloy as the anode material, using non-aqueous electrolyte solution, compared with other solar street light batteries, lithium batteries are more environmentally friendly, light weight, longer life, and of course, the price of lithium batteries will be slightly higher.
Lithium batteries are used in solar street lighting systems and have the following advantages:
