1. Lithium-ion battery is at a disadvantage in cost performance.
Due to the high price of lithium-ion batteries, even the lowest-priced lithium-ion batteries of the same specifications are twice as expensive as lead-acid batteries. Lithium-ion batteries may gradually replace lead-acid batteries in the field of high-end products, but two-wheel electric vehicles are after all Ordinary people are an important purchasing power, and high cost performance will determine that lead-acid batteries are still the mainstream.
2. Lead-acid batteries are more stable and safer
Due to the nature of the lithium-ion battery, once the battery cell undergoes thermal failure, the entire battery pack will be in a dangerous state. The lead-acid battery has almost no trouble of thermal failure (especially in the discharge phase). Even if it is swollen, it will not cause any trouble in safety. Thanks to the advantages of price and safety, lead-acid batteries almost Monopolize the battery market for electric vehicles!
3. Some brands gradually use lead acid to replace
Lithium Ion Batteries Since the new national standard is only for electric bicycles, and the electric (light) motorcycle category does not impose restrictions on the weight of the whole vehicle, as long as other aspects meet the standards of electric motorcycles and lightweight electric motorcycles, the lead-acid battery can be used normally. Just as a group of Internet electric car brands, such as Mavericks and No. 9, have begun to gradually use lead-acid instead of lithium-ion batteries, the reason is self-evident!
4. The lithium-ion battery recycling system is immature, and lead-acid has a complete industrial chain
The development of lead-acid batteries in the past 20 years has formed a complete processing-sales-recycling industrial chain. Lead-acid batteries have a high recycling rate and can form stable recycling. This is also an important reason why lead-acid batteries can continue to maintain a strong market vitality. Lithium-ion batteries are difficult to recycle. They cannot be recycled like lead-acid batteries. They face serious environmental problems and waste of resources, and the recycling rate is extremely low.
5. After-sales storage and transportation of lithium-ion batteries have high risks and imperfect technology
The storage and transportation of lithium-ion batteries has a greater safety risk. Even scrapped lithium-ion batteries still have a lot of energy. In the process of storage and transportation, dangerous goods vehicle transportation and insulation treatment are required. Lithium-ion battery practitioners need professional training. The current policies and technologies for this part are not yet perfect.
According to analysis, although major battery companies have carried out lithium-ion battery projects after the implementation of the new national standard, considering the high cost of lithium-ion batteries, poor safety, and immature recycling systems, there is no doubt about the future of lead-acid batteries Still the mainstream of the market!
