Initial laboratory results are showing significant further savings for both energy and time in the formation of lead-acid batteries. Technical editor Dr Mike McDonagh guides the reader through the chemical reactions of the formation process and the mechanisms being explored to realise these savings.
Since the programme to improve lead-acid battery formation efficiency began, in 2021, we have developed a series of trials to improve the energy and time efficiency of standard formation programmes. The word formation is derived from the fact that this is the first electrical charge given to batteries whose active . . .
