Author: Conrad Nichols, Senior Technology Analyst at IDTechEx Retired electric vehicle (EV) batteries can be repurposed for second-life applications such as stationary energy storage and lower power electromobility applications. In some cases, cells or modules can be replaced with new counterparts, which would see EV batteries remanufactured and have their first life extended for use in an EV. These cases all extend the lifetime of the EV battery, maximize its value, and can reduce the CO2 associated with the battery (e.g., production, transportation, recycling) per kWh discharged over the entire lifetime of…
