Lithium batteries are much more expensive than lead-acid batteries, so what are the benefits of using lithium batteries for energy storage systems?

　　1. Reduce the size and weight of the energy storage system and effectively use space

　　Lithium battery packs store a lot of energy into a smaller space, so they only occupy about one-third (or less) of the same power valve-regulated battery. This will help customers increase the floor space available for IT equipment, while reducing cooling requirements, thereby saving investment costs and ongoing operating costs.

　　2. The high cycle life of lithium batteries reduces maintenance costs

　　The long-life design of the lithium battery will greatly reduce the cost of replacing the battery and the burden of maintenance.

　　3. The cost of lithium batteries continues to fall

　　The initial cost of lithium batteries is still higher than VRLA, but this price gap has been significantly reduced in the past few years. However, the price of lead-acid batteries continues to rise due to rising environmental costs.

　　4. Lithium batteries are the first choice for green and environmental protection

　　Lithium batteries do not contain heavy metals such as lead, nickel, and chromium. Lead-acid batteries are gradually abandoned by various industries based on environmental protection requirements in many countries.

　　Lithium-ion battery (LIB) has become the main energy storage solution in modern social life. Among them, lithium iron phosphate batteries are a perfect replacement for lead-acid batteries, and are the first choice for grid-connected peak shaving, off-grid energy storage, photovoltaic energy storage, UPS, data centers and other industries.
