Usually, researchers and engineers use the equivalent full cycles model, but the results show that in many cases (most of the typical stand-alone PV systems) it leads to overestimation of the battery lifetime. 4. Discussion
Lead-acid batteries, a more affordable option, generally last 3 to 7 years in solar setups. In contrast, lithium-ion batteries, though pricier upfront, often provide 10 to 15 years of reliable service. Factors such as discharge depth, charge cycles, environmental conditions, and maintenance all affect how long a solar battery lasts.
For the studied standalone PV-battery system with Li-ion batteries and low temperatures (much lower than 20 °C), the typical value of 20 years for stationary battery systems can be considered as the battery lifetime. However, if the average temperature is higher than 20 °C (as in Tindouf), the battery life is significantly reduced to 13.7 years.
For Li-ion batteries, both the cycle and calendar aging must be considered, obtaining more than 20 years of battery life estimation for the Pyrenees and 13 years for Tindouf. In the cases studied, the lifetime of LiFePO 4 batteries is around two times the OPzS lifetime.
In many cases, the battery degradation is not considered or its lifetime is estimated in fixed values based on the experience of the researcher [ 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 ]. In other cases, battery lifetime is estimated by using the equivalent full cycles model [ 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 ].
Among the various options available, lithium-ion batteries, particularly Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4), generally stand out as the longest-lasting solar battery type. LiFePO4 batteries typically offer a lifespan of 10-15 years or more, significantly outperforming traditional lead-acid batteries.

Since the annual average temperature of the battery is around 20°C, if the batteries were operated as standby batteries, the highest lifetime expected would be 5 years for type A and 12 years for type B. However, in PV use we derate this to about 80% of these values giving maximum expected daily lifetimes of 4 years and about 10 years ...
