Energy recovery
The following two graphics show an energy recovery performance comparison between an AGM battery and a lithium ion battery.
AGM battery:
| Item | Explanation |
|---|---|
| 1 | Capacity in ampere-hours |
| 2 | Voltage in Volts |
| 3 | Current in amperes |
| 4 | Time in seconds |
| 5 | Curve for state of charge |
| 6 | Current curve |
| 7 | Voltage curve |
Lithium ion battery:
| Item | Explanation |
|---|---|
| 1 | Battery capacity in ampere-hours |
| 2 | Battery voltage in volts |
| 3 | Current in amperes |
| 4 | Time in seconds |
| 5 | Curve for state of charge |
| 6 | Current curve |
| 7 | Voltage curve |
NOTE:
AGM battery:
The service life of an AGM battery is typically assumed to be 300 to 400 full cycles. That comes to a charge flow rate of approx. 36, 000 Ah.
Lithium ion battery: With the chemicals used, up to 3000 full cycles are possible. This corresponds to a charge flow rate of approx. 210, 000 Ah.
Lithium ion battery: With the chemicals used, up to 3000 full cycles are possible. This corresponds to a charge flow rate of approx. 210, 000 Ah.
