lithium-ion batteries

In the fast-evolving world of industrial lithium batteries, extending cycle life—the number of charge and discharge cycles a battery can endure before significant degradation occurs—is one of the key advantages over the incumbent lead-acid technology. A battery management system (BMS) plays a pivotal role in supporting the long cycle life of a lithium battery. Low-priced […]

Listen up, power plant operators: moving forward, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting is going to impact your material handling equipment (MHE) buying process. Purchasing forklifts is no longer just about comparison shopping for the best products, adding an item to the expense column of your ledgers, and creating processes for the ongoing monitoring, managing, […]

Washington, D.C., August 27, 2020 –The U.S. Energy Storage Association (ESA) today announced that its Corporate Responsibility Initiative (CRI) Task Force has published Guidelines for End of Life and Recycling of Lithium-Ion Battery Energy Storage Systems. This new resource outlines how to plan for end-of-life management of Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries from decommissioned energy storage systems (ESS) in an […]

When three scientists won the Nobel Peace Prize last year for their work on lithium-ion batteries, The New York Times was one of many outlets that drew the connection between improved energy storage and the
