Batteries generate heat due to internal resistance and chemical reactions occurring during charging and discharging. When current flows through the battery, energy is lost as heat due to resistance in the materials. Additionally, exothermic reactions during the battery's operation can contribute to temperature increases. Excessive heat can reduce battery efficiency and lifespan, making thermal management important in battery design.

Is battery a source of light?

In general, battery is source of electricity and not the heat source. However, for common use of battery, battery can be a heat source though it is not intended to be. It is because the flow of electrical current through resistance would give out heat. If your battery heat up without cause then it is suspected for the short-circuit. Over charging or oversupply of electricity would also cause the battery heat up.
