This document compares the energy density of various battery types. It shows that lithium ion batteries have the highest energy density at both 180 Wh/L by volume and 100 Wh/kg by mass. Nickel-metal hydride batteries have the second highest energy density by volume at 401 Wh/L, while lithium iron phosphate batteries have the second highest by mass at 195 Wh/kg. Rechargeable alkaline batteries have the lowest energy density of the battery types listed.
