What are the application scenarios of lithium batteries?

With the rapid development of science and technology, the number of electronic smart devices is increasing day by day. Along with the serious energy shortage and environmental protection problems, there are higher requirements for batteries. The recent rapid development of lithium battery technology has given it more advantages, and it is now widely used in various fields. For example: transportation, medical care, military, energy storage, etc.

1. Applications in the field of transportation

(1) Electric vehicles

As the number of cars in our country gradually increases, air pollution has become increasingly serious, which has reached a level that must be controlled and treated. Especially in some large and medium-sized cities, the situation has become more serious. Therefore, the new generation of lithium-ion batteries has been vigorously developed and applied in the electric vehicle industry because of its non-pollution, low pollution, and diversified energy sources.

(2) Two-wheel and three-wheel electric vehicles, etc.

At present, most electric vehicles in my country still use lead-acid batteries as power. In addition to being heavy, lead-acid batteries also cause environmental pollution when used. If lithium-ion batteries are used, the weight of the battery will be significantly reduced and it will be relatively environmentally friendly. Therefore, it is an inevitable trend for lithium-ion batteries to replace the lead-acid batteries of electric bicycles. In this way, the lightness, convenience and safety of electric bicycles will be welcomed by more and more people.

(3) Public transportation

Today, with the increasing energy crisis and environmental protection pressure, green public transportation will become a trend. Buses have changed from fuel vehicles to pure electric vehicles, which reduces exhaust emissions and is a relatively environmentally friendly way of travel. As a new type of transportation, rail transit is more efficient and environmentally friendly. All are inseparable from the application of lithium batteries.

2. Applications in the field of electronic products

In recent years, my country's lithium-ion battery industry has maintained rapid growth, the system varieties have become increasingly complete, product quality has continued to improve, and application fields have continued to expand. While being widely used in consumer electronics, new energy vehicles, power tools, and energy storage devices, the rapid development of industrial intelligence, military informatization, civilian convenience, and the Internet, Internet of Things, and smart cities are also driving the lithium-ion battery market The scale continues to expand.

3. Applications in the field of energy storage

The key applications of energy storage on the power generation side include photovoltaic power storage stations, wind power storage stations, and AGC frequency modulation power stations; the key points of user-side energy storage include photovoltaic storage charging stations, home energy storage, backup power supplies, etc.; grid energy storage includes substation energy storage, virtual power plants, Scenarios such as peak shaving/frequency modulation.

Energy storage lithium batteries have no direct requirements for energy density, but different energy storage scenarios have different requirements for the power density of energy storage lithium batteries. The application of lithium-ion batteries in the field of power energy storage requires batteries to have safety, long life, and high energy conversion efficiency.

4. Applications in the military field

In the context of information warfare, more and more digital weapons are emerging in modern warfare. Military energy is related to the combat effectiveness of the military and the overall security of the country. Lithium batteries are currently widely used in military fields, such as field power supply, unmanned equipment, individual soldier power supply, high-energy weapon power supply, etc. Become an indispensable source of energy in military operations. played an irreplaceable role in it.

5. Applications in the aviation field

Nickel-cadmium batteries are widely used in civil aircraft. Compared with lithium batteries, they have disadvantages such as large size, heavy weight, insufficient storage capacity and discharge current, and slow charging. As lithium battery technology matures and its performance improves, high-performance and large-capacity lithium batteries will further meet the electrical energy needs of the new generation of multi-purpose civil aircraft, reduce the weight of the aircraft, and encourage civil aircraft manufacturers to gradually use them for aircraft emergency use Airborne systems such as lighting, cockpit voice recorder, flight data recorder, recorder independent power supply, backup or emergency power supply, main power supply and auxiliary power unit power supply. With the continuous emergence of new materials, lithium battery technology will continue to develop and mature. With its superior performance, large-capacity and high-power lithium batteries will have broader application prospects in the aviation field.

6. Applications in other aspects

In the medical field, medical equipment that requires power supply is becoming more and more portable and can be carried anytime and anywhere for rescue purposes. Portable equipment is also becoming more and more convenient to move. It is precisely because of the application and development of technologies such as lithium batteries. The proliferation of portable home instruments and mobile monitoring equipment allows patients to stay where they like. Portable medical devices must be truly portable to provide the best service to patients. The demand for smaller, lighter medical devices has therefore increased significantly.
