For this study, a 160Ah Ni-MH battery is produced with parallel arranged two 80Ah Ni-MH batteries as an unit, in order to start diesel generator(engine) in place of Lead Acid battery or Ni-cd battery which contain indicated toxic pollutant of Environmental pollution, by high capacity Ni-MH battery. And the ternary electrolyte recipe is requested to develop proper electrodes of the 160Ah Ni-MH battery, and then the 160Ah battery can be tested at high rate discharging performance. Zn is added to negative electrode for the improvement of performance. 160Ah Ni-MH battery has been tested in various experiments for diesel engine starting. As the result, diesel engine starting is found successfully.
