Lithium Battery Solutions for Smart Agriculture & IoT Farming Devices

Lithium Battery Solutions for Smart Agriculture & IoT Farming Devices

Custom lithium-ion and LiFePO₄ battery packs for agricultural sensors, smart irrigation, drones, and IoT farming equipment.

Smart Agriculture IoT Devices Custom Lithium Battery LiFePO₄ Battery

1. Background: Smart Agriculture & IoT Farming

Smart agriculture and IoT farming are transforming traditional agriculture into a data-driven industry. From soil
sensors and wireless weather stations to smart irrigation controllers and agricultural drones, more and more
devices are deployed directly in the field, often far from a stable power grid. A reliable battery system
therefore becomes the “heart” of each device, ensuring continuous monitoring and precise control in harsh outdoor
environments. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Compared with ordinary consumer electronics, smart agriculture devices face higher demands: long standby time,
wide temperature operation, resistance to humidity and dust, and stable performance over multiple planting
seasons. PKNERGY focuses on providing safe and durable lithium battery packs for these applications, especially
through
custom LiFePO₄ battery
and
custom lithium polymer battery
solutions.

2. Power Requirements of Smart Agriculture Devices

Smart agriculture covers various IoT devices deployed in fields, greenhouses, orchards, and livestock farms. Typical
devices include:

  • Soil moisture / salinity / pH sensors
  • Environmental monitoring nodes (temperature, humidity, CO₂, light intensity)
  • Smart irrigation controllers and valve actuators
  • Wireless gateways and communication base nodes
  • Agricultural drones (for spraying, seeding, mapping and inspection)
  • Livestock trackers, collars, and portable handheld terminals

These devices usually have the following power characteristics:

  • Ultra-long standby time – many sensor nodes require years of operation on a single pack or cell.
  • Low average power, but peak pulses – wireless transmission and valve actuation create short current spikes.
  • Wide temperature range – devices need to operate under strong sunlight, heat, cold nights, rain and dust.
  • Maintenance difficulty – devices are scattered in fields, making frequent battery replacement costly.

Therefore, the battery solution must balance energy density, cycle life, self-discharge, and cost, while
providing strong reliability in outdoor environments.

3. Suitable Battery Chemistries for IoT Farming

Depending on working mode (continuous, intermittent, or seasonal) and whether the device is rechargeable, smart
agriculture devices can use different types of lithium chemistries:

3.1 Rechargeable Li-ion & LiPo (3.6–3.7 V)

Rechargeable lithium-ion and lithium polymer (LiPo) cells are widely used in data collection nodes, handheld
terminals and small controllers. They offer:

  • High energy density and compact size.
  • Good cycle life for devices charged via solar panels or USB.
  • Flexible pack design, including very thin and custom-shaped cells for compact enclosures.

PKNERGY provides

custom Li-ion polymer battery

packs with customized voltage, capacity, connectors and protection circuits for different IoT nodes.

3.2 LiFePO₄ (3.2 V)

Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO₄) is particularly suitable for outdoor and agricultural environments because of:

  • Excellent thermal and chemical stability, very safe chemistry.
  • Long cycle life (often 2000+ cycles under proper conditions).
  • Good high-temperature tolerance, working reliably in hot summers.

For irrigation controllers, gateways, and field-installed boxes that require long service life, a

custom LiFePO₄ battery

pack can significantly reduce maintenance times and improve system ROI.

3.3 High-energy Lithium Packs for Agricultural Drones

Agricultural drones for spraying or mapping usually need higher power and energy capacity. Here, high-rate Li-ion
or LiPo packs are commonly used, with:

  • High discharge current capability.
  • Good gravimetric energy density to extend flight time.
  • Carefully designed BMS for balancing and safety.

For more general mobile devices and robots in the field, you can also refer to PKNERGY’s

mobile robot power solution

for design inspiration.

3.4 Emerging Chemistries

For some long-life, low-current sensor nodes, new chemistries such as sodium-ion are starting to attract
attention, offering good performance under wide temperatures and potentially lower cost. PKNERGY can provide

custom sodium-ion battery

solutions for pilot projects on request.

7. FAQs about Batteries for Smart Agriculture

Q1: How do I choose the right battery chemistry for my IoT farming device?

It depends on your device’s power consumption, expected lifetime, installation environment, and maintenance
strategy. For compact rechargeable nodes with solar charging, Li-ion or LiPo is often a good choice. For
controllers and gateways that must last many years with high safety, LiFePO₄ is usually preferred. PKNERGY
can evaluate your project and recommend the most suitable option.

Q2: Can PKNERGY design waterproof or dustproof battery packs?

Yes. Based on your IP rating requirements and device structure, we can design packs with appropriate casing,
sealing and wiring to improve resistance to dust and moisture. This is particularly important for field
installations in agriculture.

Q3: How long can a battery-powered sensor node run in the field?

Runtime depends on multiple factors: sampling frequency, wireless transmission interval, sleep current,
temperature, and battery capacity. PKNERGY’s engineering team can help you build a power budget model and
calculate expected operating time based on your real working profile.

Q4: How can we start a smart agriculture battery project with PKNERGY?
