Extending the Cycle Life of an Industrial Battery: What Makes a Battery Last?, Paper360º March/April 2024

In the fast-evolving world of industrial lithium batteries, extending cycle life—the number of charge and discharge cycles a battery can endure before significant degradation occurs—is one of the key advantages over the incumbent lead-acid technology. A battery management system (BMS) plays a pivotal role in supporting the long cycle life of a lithium battery. Low-priced newcomer battery brands often opt for off-the-shelf BMS solutions with basic functions that are not designed for complex systems. These battery packs fail prematurely, despite using standard-quality lithium cells.

In this article, we explore the significance of a robust BMS, the impact of battery cell chemistry on cycle life, and how a comprehensive product life-cycle infrastructure contributes to making batteries last longer.
