Secondary batteries for satellite use / by W.D. Edwards. : Co24-3/7-1300-1976E-PDF
"The relative merits of nickel/cadmium (Ni/Cd), nickel hydrogen (Ni/H₂) and silver/hydrogen (Ag/H₂) batteries as sealed units for satellite use have been examined. It is concluded that the state-of-the-art with respect to Ni/H₂ cells is not sufficiently advanced to justify their use as main power sources on Canadian satellites within 5 years. At the present time it appears to be much more cost effective to improve the reliability and life of Ni/Cd batteries than to try to replace them with high energy per lb Ni/H₂ batteries. The background, desirability and economics of manufacturing satellite batteries in Canada are discussed and recommendations made"--Abstract, page 1.
