Charge transport is one of the most important phenomena, which directly influences the performance of the energy storage and conversation devices. In this work, the authors provide an overview of various rechargeable energy storage battery chemistries and designs, and discuss the charge transport processes related to power capability of the lithium-ion technology. The load distribution by parallel connection of high power batteries or supercapacitor and high-energy cells is discussed and general conclusions are provided. Thus, the reduced peak power load on the high-energy cells are approved by simulation and experiment in passive parallel circuitry of high power and a high energy lithium-ion cells. The definition and advantages of the earlier deduced electrical loss time are explained. It is shown, that at a constant C-rate, defined as the ratio of the applied current and the rated cell capacity in Ah, the electrical loss time has a direct linear correlation to efficiency, and that the electrical loss time allows a direct power capability comparison of various battery cell chemistries and systems. The power capability, specific energy, and energy density of the industry relevant Li-ion battery cells based on electrical loss time approach are summarized and the following conclusions made. Today prismatic cells reach the maximum specific energy of small cylindrical cells, at the same time showing a little bit better power capability, than the investigated high energy cylindrical cells.
