Is the battery used in solar street lamp system UPS or EPS? Or something else?

The battery used in solar street lamp system is usually EPS (Emergency Power Supply) battery, not UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) battery. Although both of them are used to store electric energy in an emergency, they are different in design and function.

UPS battery is mainly used to provide power backup to ensure that the equipment can continue to operate normally in case of power failure or power fluctuation. UPS systems are usually used for key equipment, such as computer servers, communication equipment and medical equipment. UPS battery needs to have the characteristics of fast response speed and large power output, so as to ensure that when the power grid fails, the equipment can be immediately switched to the standby power supply to avoid data loss or equipment damage.

The storage battery used in the solar street lamp system is used to store the electric energy generated by the solar power generation system for street lamps to use at night or on cloudy days. These batteries are mainly used to store electric energy in order to provide continuous lighting when solar power generation is insufficient or unable to generate electricity. Therefore, the battery required by solar street lamp system needs to have a large capacity and a long discharge time to ensure that the street lamp can work continuously all night.

In addition, the battery of solar street lamp system needs to have high cycle life and deep discharge ability to adapt to frequent charge and discharge cycles. Due to the instability of solar power generation system, the battery needs to be able to charge quickly and release a lot of electric energy in a short time. Therefore, solar street lamp systems usually use deep cycle batteries, such as lead-acid batteries or lithium-ion batteries.

In a word, the batteries used in solar street lamp system are mainly EPS batteries, not UPS batteries. These batteries need to have large capacity, long discharge time, high cycle life and deep discharge ability to meet the needs of solar street lamp system.
