Advanced bipolar lead-acid battery for hybrid electric vehicles

摘要

A large size 80 V bipolar lead acid battery was constructed and tested successfully with a drive cycle especially developed for a HEV. The bipolar battery was made using the bipolar plate developed at TNO and an optimised paste developed by Centurion. An empirical Model was derived for calculating the Ragone plot from the results from a small size 12 V bipolar lead-acid battery.
