The most common type of battery used in home energy storage systems is lithium-ion batteries. They are favored for their high energy density, long lifespan (up to 20 years), and fast charge/discharge times2. Lithium-ion batteries account for about 90% of the global grid battery storage market2. Other types of batteries used include lead-acid and flow batteries, which have their own benefits and drawbacks3.For example, lead-acid batteries are less expensive but have a shorter lifespan compared to lithium-ion3.
