Preface
Primary (non-rechargeable) and secondary (rechargeable)
batteries are an area of manufacturing industry
that has undlergone a tremendous growth in the past
two or three decades, both in sales volume and in
variety of products designed to meet new applications.
Not so long ago, mention of a battery to many
people brought to mind the image of an automotive
battery or a torch battery and, indeed, these
accounted for the majority of batteries being produced.
There were of course other battery applications such
as submarine and aircraft batteries, but these were
of either the lead-acid or alkaline type. Lead-acid,
nickel-cadmium, nickel-iron and carbon-zinc represented
the only electrochemical couples in use at that
time.
There now exist a wide range of types of batteries,
both primary and secondary, utilizing couples
that were not dreamt of a few years ago. Many of
these couples have been developed and utilized to produce
batteries to meet specific applications ranging
from electric vehicle propulsion, through minute batteries
for incorporation as memory protection devices
in printed circuits in computers, to pacemaker batteries
used in h.eart surgery. This book attempts to draw
together in one place the available information on all
types of battery now being commercially produced.
It starts with a chapter dealing with the basic theory
behind t!he operation of batteries. This deals with
the effects omf such factors as couple materials, electrolyte
composition, concentration and temperature on
battery performance, and also discusses in some detail
such factors as the effect of discharge rate on battery
capacity. The basic thermodynamics involved in
battery operation are also discussed. The theoretical
treatment concentrates OK the older types of battery,
such as lead--acid, where much work has been carried
out over the years. The ideas are, however, in many
cases equally applicable to the newer types of battery
and one of the objectives of this chapter is to assist
the reader in carrying out such calculations.
The following chapters ,discuss various aspects
of primary and secondary batteries including those
batteries such as silver-zinc and alkaline manganese
which are available in both forms.
Chapter 2 is designed to present the reader with
information on the types of batteries available and to
assist him or her in choosing a type of battery which
is suitable for any particular application, whether this
be a digital watch or a lunar landing module.
Part 1 (Chapters 3-17) presents all available
information on the performance characteristics of
various types of battery and it highlights the parameters
that it is important to be aware of when considering
batteries. Such information is vital when discussing
with battery suppliers the types and characteristics of
batteries they can supply or that you may wish them
to develop.
Part 2 (Chapters 18-29) is a presentation of the theory,
as far as it is known, behind the working of all the
types of battery now commercially available and of the
limitations that battery electrochemistry might place
on performance. It also discusses the ways in which
the basic electrochemistry influences battery design.
Whilst battery design has always been an important
factor influencing performance and other factors such
as battery weight it is assuming an even greater
importance in more recently developed batteries.
Part 3 (Chapters 30 and 3 1) is a comprehensive discussion
of practical methods for determining the performance
characteristics of all types of battery. This is
important to both the battery producer and the battery
user. Important factors such as the measurement of the
effect of discharge rate and temperature on available
capacity and life are discussed.
Part 4 (Chapters 32-43) is a wide ranging look at
the current applications of various types of battery
and indicates areas of special interest such as vehicle
propulsion, utilities loading and microelectronic and
computer applications.
Part 5 (Chapters 44-49) deals with all aspects of
the theory and practice of battery charging and will be
of great interest to the battery user.
Finally, Part 6 (Chapters 50-63) discusses the massive
amount of information available from battery


Motivation

Primary Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions

  • Development of Primary Energy Consumption in the Past 40 Years
The global consumption of primary energy has been marked by a strong increase in
the past 40 years. Figure 1.1 presents the development of primary energy consumption,
broken down into groupings, namely industrial countries of the OECD; former
Soviet Union; and emerging economies (i.e. developing countries). In 1965, the
worldwide consumption of primary energy amounted to only 3,860 MTOE (million
tonnes of oil equivalent); by 2005, it had increased to 10,224 MTOE. This corresponds
to an increase of 172% or an annual rate of increase of 2.5% (BP 2008). In
industrial countries, the increase was around 107% for 40 years, corresponding to
an annual rate of increase of almost 2%. In the emerging economies, which started
from a lower absolute level, the increase was 640%, which corresponds to an annual
rate of increase of more than 5%.
Figure 1.2 shows the share of primary energy consumption of the different countries
and regions for the year 2005. A conspicuous fact here is the high share of
North America, where in the USA alone almost a quarter of the entire primary
energy of the world is consumed.
In 2005, the fossil energy sources, i.e. crude oil, natural gas and coal, comprised
87% of primary energy consumption (see Fig. 1.3).

  • Developments Until 2030
Predictions of the development of primary energy consumption are based on various
assumptions about the total population, the gross national product and the energy
efficiency of different countries and are highly dependent on general political conditions.
The following shall present predictions of the development of the energy
demand up until 2030, which predominantly rely on an extrapolation of the current
developments and general conditions. The effect of political measures introduced




until now is reflected; future possible and also probable measures are not taken into
consideration. The reference scenario of the International Energy Agency (IEA) in
2006, for instance, assumes a growth of the world population to 8.1 thousand million
up to the year 2030 (2004: 6.4 thousand million), an increase of the gross national
product of 4% at the beginning, levelling off at 2.9% per year, and natural oil prices
of somewhat more than $60 per barrel (real price 2005). Technologies of power
supply and energy utilisation (end-use technologies) become ever more efficient.
The predictions illustrated in Figs. 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 of global primary energy
demand, electric power generation, installed power plant capacities and CO2 emissions
rely on data of the IEA and the US Department of Energy (DoE) (IEA 2002,



2006b, a; DoE 2007). They describe probable development if no dramatic measures
are taken to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Possible measures shall
be discussed in Sect. 1.3.
According to Fig. 1.4, global primary energy consumption will increase by more
than 60% (in comparison to the year 2000) by 2030, which corresponds to an annual
rate of increase of about 1.6%. This increase can be explained on the one hand
by the growth of the world population and on the other by the accumulated needs
of the emerging economies, such as China and India. Predictions, for example for
China, say that the energy consumption will double in such countries. Fossil energy
sources will continue to cover more than 80% of the primary energy consumption in
2030, with crude oil still making up the most important energy source, with a rough
fraction of about 35%. Natural gas among all the energy sources shows the highest
rates of increase – the consumption of it will double with respect to the year 2000
and its relative fraction will rise to 26%. The fraction of coal will decrease slightly,
arriving at about 22% by 2030. In the absolute, though, the consumption rises by
50% from the year 2000.
Electric power (see Fig. 1.5) will still further consolidate its great importance
as an end-use energy source. The consumption of electric power will about double
between 2000 and 2030, the rates of increase of 2.4% per year ranging clearly above
the growth rates of primary energy consumption. Coal, with about 37%, will be the
most important primary energy source in electric power generation; natural gas will
increase its share to more than 30%.
The predicted rise of electric power consumption requires the installation of
new power plants on a considerable scale (see Fig. 1.6). The power plant capacity
installed worldwide amounted to about 3,400GW in 2000 and is supposed to
rise to 7,060 in 2030. Taking into consideration that old plants have to be removed

from service and replaced, it follows that, by 2030, electricity-generating plants
with a total capacity of 4,800GW will have to be erected throughout the world.
This corresponds to 9,600 power plants with an electrical power output of 500MW.
One has to assume in this respect that new power plants will be built predominantly
for primary energy sources such as natural gas (about 2,000 GW) and coal (about
1,500 GW). In China alone, thermal power plants, for example, with a total power
of 720GW shall have to be installed by 2020; per year, between 30 and 40 new
coal-fired power plants with a capacity of 600MW are currently being built. While
in the emerging economies and developing countries, new power plants cover the
added demand, new power plants in Europe are planned mainly as substitutes for
existing old plants. By the year 2020, about 200GW of power station capacity shall
be newly installed in Europe.
The CO2 emissions illustrated in Fig. 1.7 suggest a likely rise to about 38 thousand
million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year until 2030. Referring to the year
2000, this corresponds to a rise of about 68%.
