Time: Batteries naturally degrade over time, even when they are not in use. This type of degradation is often referred to as calendar degradation. It is influenced by the state of charge at which the battery is kept, with high states of charge generally leading to faster battery degradation.
For energy-focused applications, knowledge of degradation will benefit EV owners by reducing warranty costs and minimising degradation performance and range losses over their car’s lifetime. Conidence in the state-of-health of the battery will also improve residual values, reducing the total cost of ownership.
It also imposes a significant cost on the user, as batteries can contribute to over 25% of the product cost for consumer electronics, over 35% for electric vehicles, and over 50% for power tools. We review and present mechanisms, methods, and guidelines focused on preserving battery health and limiting degradation.
However, EV batteries will slowly begin to lose the amount of energy they can store over time. This phenomenon is called “battery degradation” and can result in reduced energy capacity, range, power, and overall efficiency. Unfortunately, battery degradation is not easy to predict.
This means that over time, a fully charged battery won't take you as far as it initially did. Similarly, in battery energy storage systems (BESS), battery degradation can limit the amount of energy that can be stored and delivered, impacting the overall efficiency of the system.
While degradation can't be eliminated entirely, we present a hopeful future for battery longevity through continuous innovation and optimization.
