Progress and Challenges in Bipolar Lead‐Acid Battery Development
Bipolar lead‐acid batteries have higher power densities than any other aqueous battery system. Predicted specific powers based on models and prototypes range from 800 kW/kg for 100 ms discharge times to 1.6 kW/kg for 10 s. A 48 V automotive bipolar battery could have times the cold cranking rate of a monopolar 12 V design in the same …
