Influence of temperature on the performance and life cycle of storage batteries

The paper addresses the influence of temperature on the operating life of storage batteries used in autonomous electric transport. We analyzed the studies describing the relationship between the temperature factor and the storage battery life cycle, substantiated the need for temperature control of storage batteries, and considered the existing temperature control systems. Taking into account the advantages and disadvantages of the systems under consideration, we propose a system that provides the best efficiency of storage battery temperature control. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
