The efficiency of lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries is above 80 percent, meaning that 20 percent or less of the energy stored in the device is lost. By comparison, the round trip efficiency of flow batteries is 85 percent or lower.
Lithium-ion batteries also account for the largest specific energy among battery energy storage technologies, indicating the ratio between the energy contained in a battery and its weight.
