| The GS Yuasa battery can provide power both underwater and in space |
As battery manufacturers around the world compete for shares in the lucrative market for electric vehicles, the Japanese manufacturer GS Yuasa batteries with a history of more than a hundred years is imminent.
The battery developed by GS Yuasa can carry the harsh ocean environment into space, and the company believes that the performance principle is a source of competitiveness and is committed to a new era of power supply from barrels.
The GS Yuasa battery is the main power source for the International Space Station. Kounotori, a Japan Aerospace Authority (JAXA) unmanned aerial vehicle, has delivered a GS Yuasa battery to the space station.
All batteries of the International Space Station have been replaced by GS Yuasa, the first company produced by NASA outside the United States.
The International Space Station's energy comes from solar panels and when it reaches the dark side of Earth it is powered by electrical energy stored in batteries.
The station orbits the Earth approximately every 90 minutes and charges and discharges its batteries 16 times a day.
The battery life of the space station is more than 10 years in the space environment.
Due to the fact that after charging and discharging, the performance of smartphone batteries will decrease for a few years after charging once or twice a day, the batteries installed on the space station are very durable.
In addition to space, Yuasa GS batteries are also being installed in the depths of the ocean where they are housed in the world's first new Japanese submarine powered by lithium batteries.
The Ministry of Defense has received the first submarine of a new type of submarine called "Olio". Its batteries are charged with diesel generators, while the batteries power the submarine with engines. Water during stealth missions.
This allows the spaceship to operate virtually silently, making it difficult to track down potential enemies.
Compared to traditional lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries can store more energy, allowing submarines to spend more time underwater.
When GS Yuasa was working with the Ministry of Defense and Mitsubishi Corporation to develop a new type of power battery for submarines, she manufactured lead-acid batteries for submarines.
The result is that the lithium-ion battery meets strict safety and durability standards for submarines.
The development test of the Yuasa GS battery began in 1895 when it was the first lead acid battery. Today the company manufactures prismatic lithium-ion batteries and ultra-thin lithium-ion batteries.
GS Yuasa lead-acid batteries occupy a large share of the global market and can be used in many ways.
GS Yuasa is the world's largest motorcycle battery manufacturer with 18% share and one of the best SUV battery manufacturers with 8%.
Specialty batteries, such as those used in spacecraft and submarines, are in the niche market.
The company is participating in an electric aircraft technology development project led by the Japan Development Organization for New Energy and Industrial Technologies, which is tasked with producing new generation batteries for this aircraft.
