Application
This part focuses on the practical application and commercial exploitation of lithium–sulfur battery technology.
In Chapter 10 a detailed market analysis details the strengths and limitations of lithium–sulfur technology, and the battery requirements for a range of relevant markets are summarized. The aim is to develop a better understanding of the needs of commercial applications engineers for battery technologies and to focus research efforts to deliver those solutions. It is apparent that today Li–S batteries are no longer a one size fits all academic curiosity and that the knowledge exists to tailor the technology to meet market demand such that a meaningful market share can be realized. This can be achieved through knowledge of the working mechanism (Part II), materials research (Part I), and improved control systems (Part III).
Chapter 11 briefly outlines the significant differences to be taken into account by battery engineers designing battery packs for next‐generation lithium–sulfur technology that might not otherwise be obvious.
Chapter 12 provides a real‐world case study where lithium–sulfur batteries enabled the record‐breaking high‐altitude, long‐endurance unmanned aerial vehicle (HALE UAV) to be developed in the United Kingdom for space‐based surveillance.
