Internal resistance is a crucial parameter that determines how efficiently a battery can deliver power to an external load. It is calculated using the formula: .

Internal resistance is like toll booths every half-mile – vehicles (electrons) slow down, engines (voltage) overheat, and everyone arrives late. Real-world example? Tesla's 2023 battery pack redesign reduced internal resistance by 18%, adding 37 extra miles per charge.

Here, we characterize such a battery, showing the main sources of loss are the porous cathode, due to both Faradaic and Ohmic losses, followed by Ohmic losses in the electrolyte channel, with all other sources relatively minor contributors.
