published in the ACS journal Chemical Reviews , reviews in detail four stationary storage systems considered the most promising candidates for electrochemical energy storage: vanadium redox flow; sodium-beta alumina membrane; lithium-ion; and lead-carbon batteries. Among the most important factors are capital cost and life-cycle cost.

In April, Axion Power International Inc received an order from Norfolk Southern Corp (NS) for PbC lead-carbon batteries for use in an all-battery-powered switcher locomotive. PbC batteries are multi-celled asymmetrically supercapacitive lead-acid-carbon hybrid batteries. The battery-electric NS-999, “under the long hood”. Source: NS.
