Background
With the widespread use of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, tidal energy, etc., the demand for large energy storage power stations is increasing. Rechargeable Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs) have the advantages of high energy density, high conversion efficiency, fast reaction, long cycle life and the like, and have wide prospects in large-scale energy storage.
