IEEE Guide for Application and Management of Stationary Batteries Used in Cycling Service
Abstract
Information on the differences between stationary standby and stationary cycling applications and appropriate battery management strategies in cycling operations is covered in this guide. While the primary emphasis is on lead-acid batteries, information is also provided on alternative and emerging storage technologies. The management of battery systems in stationary standby service is covered in other IEEE documents and is beyond the scope of this guide.Scope
This guide provides information on the differences between stationary standby and stationary cycling applications and appropriate battery management strategies in cycling operations. While the primary emphasis is on lead-acid batteries, information is also provided on alternative and emerging storage technologies. The management of battery systems in stationary standby service is covered in other IEEE documents and is beyond the scope of this guide.
Purpose
This guide provides assistance to users of stationary battery systems in determining appropriate battery management strategies in cycling applications. Specifically, the guide addresses the primary similarities and differences in battery design and operation for standby versus cycling applications.
