Second Life Batteries - Repurposing EV Batteries For BESS Second life batteries are those that are used in applications after being removed from EVs. They are either placed back into EVs, or converted into stationary BESS products. Second life use cases are challenging because while they have reduced cost, the cells must be removed from the EV, tested, incorporated into the new product, and re-sold. UL 1974 and IEC 6330 are standards for Evaluation for Repurposing Batteries The second-life EV batteries market is estimated at approximately $2B in 2024, but is expected to grow quickly as EV market penetration increases. Many automakers have started efforts to commercialize second-life BESS applications from their vehicles. NOTABLE 2024 SECOND LIFE CORPORATE ACTIVITIES:
Kia Europe’s collaboration with Deutsche Bahn’s startup encore to repurpose EV batteries into energy storage systems
Audi AG and RWE’s energy storage project in Germany utilises batteries from electric cars.
Nissan and ecobat partnered to recycle, repair, and repurpose Nissan’s EV batteries
