The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is developing a proposed standard that will provide a format for the characterization of lithium battery technologies in terms of performance, service life and safety attributes.

When completed, the standard will be designed to provide a framework for developers to describe their energy storage products.

The resulting information will assist users in evaluating the possible application of emerging energy storage technologies, according to the IEEE.

The recommended practice will address lithium batteries using secondary (rechargeable) electrochemistries including lithium-ion, lithium-ion polymer, lithium-metal polymer and lithium-sulfur batteries. Primary (nonrechargeable) lithium batteries are beyond the scope of this document.
