Understanding Battery Degradation: What You Need To Know

Discover the factors contributing to battery degradation and learn how to extend battery lifespan. Find out how temperature, depth of discharge, charge and discharge rates, time, chemical composition, cycle life, and battery management systems affect battery health. Understand capacity fade, internal resistance increase, calendar aging, and electrochemical side reactions. Measure battery degradation through capacity, voltage, impedance, and internal resistance measurements. Mitigate degradation through temperature control, battery monitoring, state of charge control, avoiding full charges and deep discharges, battery balancing, and proper maintenance. Maximize battery performance and reliability for uninterrupted power.
