REVIEW OF CANDIDATE BATTERIES FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES

Short summaries are presented of most of the battery systems that can be considered for electric vehicles. Many little known systems are included, some with little or no experimental background, and thus are worth considering for future research. Electric vehicle battery requirements are postulated, and based on these requirements the battery candidates are evaluated for their near-term and long-term prospects.(a) /TRRL/
