In addition to the continuing review of the aircraft’s design, manufacture and assembly, the agency also will validate that 787 batteries and the battery system on the aircraft are in compliance with the special condition the agency issued as part of the aircraft’s certification.
Saft manufacturers a range of advanced batteries for a large range of applications using lithium and nickel chemistries, including lithium-ion, lithium-thionyl chloride (Li-SOCl 2 ), lithium-sulfur dioxide (Li-SO 2 ), lithium-manganese dioxide (Li-MnO 2 ), nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd), nickel-hydrogen (Ni-H 2 ), and nickel-metal hydride (NiMH).
competed on the initial System Design and Development (SDD) Phase of the F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter Electrical Power Management System (EPMS). The initial JSF 28 V Battery was derived from the successful F-22 Raptor Program, using Saft’s Aircraft Maintenance Free Battery (AMFB) nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) technology.
The advantages of lead-acid batteries are mainly: safety sealing, gas discharge system, simple maintenance, long service life, stable quality, and high reliability; the disadvantage is that the pollution of lead is significant, and the energy density is low (that is, too bulky).
Its SCC55 technology is designed for a range of sectors from EV to consumer electronics, eVTOL aircraft, enterprise/data centers and more. Nickel-cadmium batteries from 30 or 40 years ago got replaced by nickel-metal-hydride batteries. Think about the evolution of rechargeable batteries. The world is going to electrify.
