Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
The present disclosure relates generally to the field of energy storage devices and more specifically, to a high-density energy storage battery and a method of manufacturing the high-density energy storage battery.
BACKGROUND
A battery is a device that stores electrical energy and converts it into a usable form of electricity through a chemical reaction. Batteries are used in a wide range of applications, including portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, and stationary energy storage systems. The batteries are typically made up of two electrodes, a positive electrode and a negative electrode, separated by an electrolyte material. When a battery is discharged, ions flow through the electrolyte material from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, generating an electrical current. The performance of a battery is determined by a number of factors, including capacity, that’s the amount of energy stored by the battery, and discharge rate of the battery. Another parameter is the rate at which it delivers the energy. Other important factors include the battery's efficiency. The battery's efficiency is measured according to the percentage of energy converted into useful electricity. Another parameter is the battery's lifespan, which is the time the battery can perform its intended function before needing to be replaced. But, it is difficult to improve the performance of the battery while also reducing the price, as high quality components are necessary for enhanced performance.
Conventionally, certain attempts have been made to improve the performance of batteries. For example, improved electrode and electrolyte materials were introduced to enhance the performance of the battery. But the cost of developing and producing improved electrode and electrolyte materials is very high. Further, the manufacturing of new materials can be a time-consuming and expensive process. Moreover, it does not improve the lifespan of the battery. As a result, there exists a technical problem of how to improve the overall performance of the battery with reduced manufacturing cost.
Therefore, in light of the foregoing discussion, there exists a need to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks associated with the conventional techniques of enhancing the performance of the battery.

The size and shape of the one or more plates may affect the amount of energy that the battery 100 is able to store, as well as the charge and discharge rate and other characteristics. For example, larger plates may be able to store more energy, but they may also be heavier and take up more space, which can be a trade-off.
At step 706, the method 700 includes, filling the plurality of cells 402 with an electrolyte solution, the battery 100 having a capacity rating of about 300 AH to about 500 AH at a discharge rate of 20 hrs. The electrolyte solution is a mixture of chemicals that is used to transport ions between the electrodes of the battery 100, allowing electricity to flow through a circuit. Further, the capacity rating of the battery 100 is an important factor that can affect the performance and suitability for a given application. Furthermore, the battery 100 has a discharge rate of 20 hours, so the battery 100 provides a certain amount of power over a period of 20 hours before it is fully discharged. The discharge rate of a battery indicates how quickly the battery 100 can provide power and how long it last before the requirement of recharge occurs.
The method 700 provides the battery 100 with quick charge and discharge capability. Further, the method 700 provides the high-density energy storage battery 100 that is adapted to address the problem of low reserved capacity in single monoblocs by changing the container and lid design to accommodate a higher amount of AH in a single monobloc. Moreover, the method 700 provides the high-density energy storage battery 100 that is having longer lifespan and large energy storage capacity.
The steps 702 to 706 are only illustrative, and other alternatives can also be provided where one or more steps are added, one or more steps are removed, or one or more steps are provided in a different sequence without departing from the scope of the claims herein.
