Lead-acid batteries, the oldest rechargeable type, are still used in car starter batteries and uninterruptible power supplies. They're low-cost but heavy and have lower energy density compared to newer technologies. Rechargeable batteries rely on reversible chemical reactions to store and release energy.
All batteries, whether rechargeable or not, operate on the same fundamental principle: converting chemical energy into electrical energy. They achieve this through a chemical reaction that involves the movement of electrons between two electrodes—an anode and a cathode—within the battery. What Makes Rechargeable Batteries Different?
These are the most common batteries, the ones with the familiar cylindrical shape. There are no batteries that actually store electrical energy; all batteries store energy in some other form.
Energy is stored (and released) when lithium ions move from the cathode to the anode through the electrolyte. Unlike all lead-acid batteries that use the same chemical reaction, lithium-ion batteries come in many different chemistries. A few of the most common types of lithium batteries are:
“You cannot catch and store electricity, but you can store electrical energy in the chemicals inside a battery.” There are three main components of a battery: two terminals made of different chemicals (typically metals), the anode and the cathode; and the electrolyte, which separates these terminals.
