This article delves into the role of lead-acid batteries in grid-scale energy storage, exploring their advantages, current applications, and the challenges they face in competing with more advanced technologies like lithium-ion batteries. . The lead-acid (PbA) battery was invented by Gaston Planté more than 160 years ago and it was the first ever rechargeable battery. In the charged state, the positive electrode is lead dioxide (PbO2) and the negative electrode is metallic lead (Pb); upon discharge in the sulfuric acid electrolyte. . Grid-level large-scale electrical energy storage (GLEES) is an essential approach for balancing the supply–demand of electricity generation, distribution, and usage. Compared with conventional energy storage methods, battery technologies are desirable energy storage devices for GLEES due to their. . Among the various technologies being explored for large-scale energy storage, lead-acid batteries have remained a key contender due to their well-established use in energy systems, lower upfront costs, and reliable performance in specific applications.
