Production Steps - From the Cell to the Complete System

TCO-Advantages Driving Substitution of Lead-Acid by Li-Ion

Cell Expertise in the Group

Dr. Fabian Wohde Cell Expert at Voltabox

"

On paper, lithium-ion technology has been convincing right from the start. However, after we have installed numerous Li-Ion-based systems in the market over the past few months, the strengths of the cell chemistries we use are also evident in practice. Lithium-ion battery systems impress with their flexibility, high charging rates, long service life and massive advantages in terms of total cost of ownership". "
