Analysis and Recommendations for Practical Use of Lithium Batteries in Golf Carts

1. Why don't golf carts use ternary lithium batteries on the course?

a.The vehicles at the stadium are exposed to the sun and rain, and the surface temperature is high in summer. The three elements are prone to explosion and ignition at high temperatures, posing a great safety hazard.

b.Golf carts frequently start and stop throughout the day, resulting in deep power consumption. Ternary lithium batteries are not resistant to deep discharge, have short lifespans, and high replacement costs.

c.The stadium aims for long-term, low-cost operation, with lithium iron phosphate batteries having an 8+ year lifespan, resulting in greater cost savings throughout the entire lifecycle.

2. The only advantage of ternary lithium batteries:

a.In extremely cold and frigid environments, even in frigid northern regions where temperatures drop below -20°C, the ternary lithium battery's range is reduced even less.

b.On a golf course where the temperature remains constant year-round, the advantage is not applicable.

Finally, we recommend that golf carts and park shuttle buses use lithium phosphate batteries.

Small personal mobility vehicles and new energy vehicles in high-altitude and cold regions: ternary lithium batteries are an option.
