Abstract

Rechargeable zinc—bromine batteries exhibit a number of inherent advantages that let them appear as possible candidates for applications in electric vehicles and utility load levelling. Based upon known single cell data, the performance characteristics of zinc—bromine batteries in vehicle and utility applications are predicted. The attainable specific energy and energy efficiency are computed as a function of specific power. The effects of specific cell resistance, self-discharge rate, and charge and discharge time on specific energy and efficiency are examined.
