The aging of the battery, particularly the carbon anodes, is a factor that causes the cell to self-discharge and increases the impedance, thus shortening the battery life. The formation of SEI during electrolyte decomposition leads to a decrease in power. The increase in the SEI is intensified by higher temperatures and cyclic work.
Discharge: In contrast, discharge occurs when the stored energy in the battery is released to power external devices or systems. During discharge, the chemical reactions within the battery cause electrons to flow from the negative electrode to the positive electrode through an external circuit, generating electrical current to power the load.
