Comparative study about valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery and Li – ion battery in field of electric vehicle

  Jaydeep M. Bhatt,  Ashish N. Khudaiwala

Electric vehicle technology is the modern era of transportation, how on earth failed to survive and became less preferable to petrol based vehicles catches attention. Collecting data for electric bike failure in market took long time, from different manufactures to different garages. Survey finally ends with conclusion of some faults in fundamentals of electric vehicles, like lack of solid robust construction, cheaper electronic parts, hub motor, and the vital role is of lower battery life results in people’s lack of trust on electric vehicle. Due to that reason selection of battery technology is one of the important parameter for electric vehicle manufacturer. The current work towards the application of VRLA and Li – ion battery in field of electric vehicle. The VRLA and Li – ion battery are most successful batteries in electric vehicles. In this review article, VRLA and Li – ion batteries are compared with various aspects i.e. Cost, Safety, Recycling, Energy density, Subzero temperature charging, Startup for EV and Charging flexibility.

Keywords- Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA), Li – ion, Electric vehicles, Battery technology.
