Technical FAQs 4

What types of cells are used in lithium batteries?

There are three types of cells used in lithium batteries: cylindrical, prismatic, and pouch cells. For the purpose of this blog, all cells are lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) and 3.2 volts (V). Cylindrical cells, inspired by traditional AA batteries, come in various sizes and amp-hours as energy or power cells.

Are lithium ion batteries good for solar storage?

Lithium-ion batteries are popular for solar storage due to their high energy density, long lifespan, and decreasing cost. There are several types of lithium-ion batteries, but two types are the most commonly used for solar storage: lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and nickel manganese cobalt (NMC).

What are lithium ion solar batteries used for?

Lithium ion solar batteries are commonly used in various applications, including residential and commercial solar energy systems, off-grid setups. In residential solar systems, these batteries store excess energy generated during the day for use at night or during power outages.

What type of battery should I use for my solar system?

Although you could get a Ni-Cd battery or a flow battery to pair with your solar system, lithium ion and lead acid are the go-to solar batteries for a reason. To find out which type of solar battery will best meet your needs, you should call local solar installers.
