There are two main types of lithium-containing batteries: lithium-metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries. While both rely on lithium for energy storage, they differ significantly in their chemistry, structure, and functionality. [pdf]
[FAQS about What are the differences between lithium battery energy storage devices ]
Since BESS is still relatively new and many sites are in areas that are not specifically zoned for battery storage use, a land use permitting process, such as a conditional use permit (CUP) or special use permit (SUP) may be required from the local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). [pdf]

Second life batteries are batteries that can be applied for a different use after their initial lifecycle is over. Giving a second life to batteries, by reusing them in different but still effective ways, leads to economic and environmental benefits. [pdf]
[FAQS about What is a second-life energy storage battery]
Every home that installs a battery storage system will need an inverter to convert the stored DC electricity into grid & appliance-friendly AC electricity. The two main choices available are battery-specific inverters and so-called ‘hybrid’ or multi-mode inverters. [pdf]
