Abstract
The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources requires reliable energy storage technologies. Lithium-ion batteries have become the leading energy storage technology in many sectors due to their superior properties. However, for being fully compatible with alternative technologies, there are still obstacles to overcome. The most urgent requirements are cost reduction, accompanied by an increase in battery life. This chapter gives a brief introduction into the working principle of lithium-ion batteries, the most common commercially available cathode materials lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), nickel cobalt manganese oxide (NMC), lithium manganese oxide (LMO) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and the anode materials hard carbon and graphite. It summarises the most recent developments in applications of lithium-ion batteries, the accompanying new requirements and operating conditions.
Moreover, a literature review of studies investigating the capacity degradation is included and compared in terms of the influence of operating conditions on the lifetime of lithium-ion batteries for different chemistries. The results indicate that the NMC/hard carbon battery performed best when evaluating the cycling, the LFP/graphite batteries are more stable in terms of calendar ageing. Moreover, increased temperature seems to be the most detrimental factor for almost all chemistries for both cycling and storage although the critical temperature differs. Finally, the most recent developments and prospects for new lithium-ion battery materials and their impact on capacity and degradation are discussed.
