A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.
Generally a rechargeable battery system will tolerate more charge/discharge cycles if the DOD is lower on each cycle. [9] Lithium batteries can discharge to about 80 to 90% of their nominal capacity. Lead-acid batteries can discharge to about 50–60%. While flow batteries can discharge 100%. [10]

Twelve-volt LiFePO 4 batteries are also gaining popularity as a second (house) battery for a caravan, motor-home or boat. [49] Tesla Motors uses LFP batteries in all standard-range Models 3 and Y made after October 2021 [50] except for standard-range vehicles made with 4680 cells starting in 2022, which use an NMC chemistry.

The York Area United Fire and Rescue department is warning residents about the potential dangers of lithium-ion batteries in a recent Facebook post about a fire apparently caused by such a battery.
SCC55 has been tested and validated by battery manufacturers Farasis and StoreDot, the latter of which found that SCC55 could be charged to 80% capacity in 10 minutes. [16] In May 2022, Porsche AG announced plans to produce lithium-silicon battery cells with Group14's technology in Germany in 2024 to help power their new electric vehicles. [17]
Lithium batteries are widely used in portable consumer electronic devices. The term "lithium battery" refers to a family of different lithium-metal chemistries, comprising many types of cathodes and electrolytes but all with metallic lithium as the anode. The battery requires from 0.15 to 0.3 kg (5 to 10 oz) of lithium per kWh.
A lithium polymer battery, or more correctly, lithium-ion polymer battery (abbreviated as LiPo, LIP, Li-poly, lithium-poly, and others), is a rechargeable battery of lithium-ion technology using a polymer electrolyte instead of a liquid electrolyte. Highly conductive semisolid polymers form this electrolyte.
