Recent advances in the development of Li-ion chemistry are facilitating their use for energy storage in applications that were previously the domain of more traditional battery chemistries and have opened the door to new applications. The fundamental element of a lithium-ion battery system is the lithium-ion cell.
• Per special provision 181 in § 172.102, a package containing both lithium ion and lithium metal batteries must include hazard communication for both battery types (See Guide 07 for Lithium Metal Battery hazard communication requirements).
Revised Packing Instructions: More stringent requirements for UN-certified packaging, capable of withstanding specific drop tests. State of Charge (SoC) Emphasis: Increased scrutiny on the SoC for standalone lithium-ion battery shipments, with a general requirement not to exceed 30% of rated capacity.
The fundamental element of a lithium-ion battery system is the lithium-ion cell. It is within the cell that the electrochemical reaction takes place to absorb energy when charging and releases stored energy when discharging.
The use of lithium-ion batteries for large energy applications is still relatively new, especially in the marine and offshore industries. ABS has produced this document to provide requirements and
