Here’s taking a look at the good and the not-so-good features of lithium-ion batteries. One of the key benefits of lithium-ion batteries is that they have high energy density. What this essentially means is that they can have a high power capacity without being too bulky.
What are the environmental benefits? Renewable energy sources: Lithium-ion batteries can store energy from renewable resources such as solar, wind, tidal currents, bio-fuels and hydropower.
One of the key benefits of lithium-ion batteries is that they have high energy density. What this essentially means is that they can have a high power capacity without being too bulky. This is one of the main reasons why these batteries are so popular in the mobile industry.
The major disadvantage of lithium-ion batteries is overheating and susceptible to fire. There have been many cases of explosion when overheated or overcharged due to the buildup of gasses and an increase in internal pressure from electrolyte decomposition.
So, if you had a fully charged nickel-cadmium and a lithium-ion battery of the same capacity, and both were left unused, the lithium-ion battery would retain its charge for a lot longer than the other battery. Lithium-ion batteries take a fraction of the time taken by other batteries to charge.
The life of lithium-ion batteries can take a serious hit when they are constantly overcharged. There’s also the risk of the battery exploding in certain cases. To keep this is check, the battery has a protection circuit to ensure that the voltage and the current are well within the safe limits.
It is estimated that between 2021 and 2030, about 12.85 million tons of EV lithium ion batteries will go offline worldwide, and over 10 million tons of lithium, cobalt, nickel …

Lithium-ion batteries might be small in comparison to their competitors, but they sure pack quite a punch. ScienceStruck looks at the lithium-ion battery pros and cons.
Lithium is a good candidate for a portable battery for a couple of reasons: it is the lightest of all chemical metals, and it has a high energy density, resulting in lithium having a high electrochemical potential. [1]
Lithium batteries operate based on the movement of lithium ions between two electrodes - a positive cathode and a negative anode - through an electrolyte. When the battery is discharging, lithium ions move from the anode …
