Chemistry of Flight: The Lithium Drone Battery Market for High Energy Density
The majority of drones today fly on lithium-based batteries. The lithium drone battery market includes both lithium polymer (LiPo) and lithium-ion (Li-ion) chemistries. LiPo batteries are the standard for consumer and many commercial drones because they are lightweight and can be manufactured in thin, flat shapes that fit into drone frames. They have high energy density (around 150-200...
