MAXWELL/LISHEN ALLIANCE COULD OFFER IDEAL ENERGY/POWER PROFILE FOR HYBRID VEHICLES

摘要

One of the challenges of designing with conventional lithium-ion batteries for HEVs (hybrid-electric vehicles) is that the en-ergy-centric-rather than power-centric-batteries store a lot of energy but are slow to charge and discharge. The relatively new lithium-iron-phosphate batteries are the reverse: They charge and discharge with gusto but can store only a fraction of the energy of conventional lithium-ion batteries.
