Currently, stationary energy-storage only accounts for a tiny fraction of the total sales of lead–acid batteries. Indeed the total installed capacity for stationary applications of lead–acid in 2010 (35 MW) was dwarfed by the installed capacity of sodium–sulfur batteries (315 MW), see Figure 13.13.
Lead–acid batteries have been used for energy storage in utility applications for many years but it has only been in recent years that the demand for battery energy storage has increased.
This technology strategy assessment on lead acid batteries, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.
It should be noted that the lead–acid cell is able to operate effectively as an energy-storage device by virtue of three critical factors. First, contrary to thermodynamic expectations, the liberation of hydrogen from acids by lead takes place at only a negligible rate, i.e., there is a high hydrogen overpotential.
Of the 31 MJ of energy typically consumed in the production of a kilogram of lead–acid battery, about 9.2 MJ (30%) is associated with the manufacturing process. The balance is accounted for in materials production and recycling.
