The battery requirements of aircraft manufacturers and airlines in the 1970s and 1980s were for longer life and ever-increasing electrical performance in areas such as power-to-weight ratio and energy density but, towards the end of the 1980s, a major additional requirement became apparent: a reduction in battery maintenance to reduce direct costs and cut aircraft downtime.
