Introduction

Traction batteries, also commonly referred to as electric vehicle batteries, play a crucial role in modern transportation systems. These batteries are designed for deep-cycle applications, providing power to start, move, and stop vehicles. The demand for efficient and reliable traction batteries has increased significantly with the rise of electric vehicles.

Applications of Traction Batteries

These batteries are employed in various sectors, including:

• Electric Vehicles (EVs): EV usage relies heavily on traction batteries, powering the vehicle for distances ranging from 100 km to over 500 km per charge.
• Material Handling Equipment: Forklifts and other industrial movers are often equipped with traction batteries, offering runtime efficiency for 8-hour shifts.
• Marine Applications: Boats use these batteries to enable silent and emission-free operation.
• Rail Transport: Electric trains and trams utilize traction batteries, providing sustainable public transportation solutions.

Features of Traction Batteries

Key characteristics include:

• Energy Density: Typically range from 150 to 350 Wh/kg, supporting long drives and operational shifts.
• Cycle Life: Can range from 1,000 to over 10,000 cycles, ensuring long-term functionality and reliability.
• Voltage: Operate at voltages between 24V and 800V depending on the application.
• Temperature Range: Capable of operating from -20°C to 60°C, adapting to various environmental conditions.
