View moreThe state of charge influences a battery’s ability to provide energy or ancillary services to the grid at any given time. Round-trip eficiency, measured as a percentage, is a ratio of the energy charged to the battery to the energy discharged from the battery.
Charging can also take place at constant voltage. The initial current here is usually higher and can damage the battery. The two inconveniences brought by this charging method are that, float currents sometimes destroy the battery and also that it is more complicated to estimate the amount of energy stored using this method .
It consisted of charging the battery at different constant current rates, storing in it, 5 A-hours, in terms of battery capacity, during each of the charging processes, then discharging it while measuring the Capacity Restituted (CR). The charging was performed using a DC supply.
An index which expresses the magnitude of the charge/discharge current relative to the rated capacity of the battery. It is defined as: It (A) = Rated capacity (Ah) ÷1 (h). For example, a 3.0 Ah battery charging at 0.2 It yields 0.6 A. So it will take 5 hours (h) to charge.
The higher the charging current, the higher is the capacity restituted. In the same way, energy efficiencies increased with increase in charging current. This then suggests that the choice of charging current is of paramount importance as the charging efficiency of lead acid batteries is concerned.
