Advantages of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries for solar street lights
Lithium batteries for solar street lights are becoming an increasingly mainstream solution. We all know that lithium batteries are still very expensive considering other types of lithium batteries, but it's fair to say that they are becoming more affordable in solar street light integration. The cost of lithium batteries has dropped by almost 80% in the last 6 years. There are different types of lithium batteries available for solar street light systems. Our experience shows that the best solution is LiFePO4 batteries . Advantages of Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries for solar street lights. 1. Lighter Compared to lead-acid batteries, LiFePO4 batteries are almost four times lighter. For example, a 150ah lead-acid battery weighs about 50kg/110lbs, while the other side of the LiFePO4 battery is only 15kg/30lbs. For many solar applications, this brings huge benefits in terms of lower installation costs and faster project execution. 2. Safety Lithium iron phosphate (L...
