Pure lead carbon technology development PLH+C development for PSoC cycling and fast charging

In this paper, we will present the recent technology investigation which has integrated the advantages of thin plate pure lead and carbon technologies (PLH+C). This advanced technology will provide an alternative solution for energy storage market, especially for end users who are looking for high charge acceptance, fast charging, and long Partial State of Charge (PSoC) cycle performance. The test data shows that PLH+C improves charge efficiency significantly, over 2 times as much as thin plate pure lead battery technology. Fast charging (1-2 hours) can be achievable by using proper charging profile. Water consumption and end of charging current can be managed by reducing to the half of general pure lead batteries' values. For IEC61427-1 PSoC cycle performance, ongoing test shows good trend to achieve high cycles numbers.
