Further increasing the sustainability of battery supply chains, such as through recycling, can further enhance these benefits and reduce the need for primary critical minerals ...
Battery second use, which extracts additional values from retired electric vehicle batteries through repurposing them in energy storage systems, is promising in reducing the demand for new batteries. However, the potential scale of battery second use and the consequent battery conservation benefits are largely unexplored.
Potential of electric vehicle batteries second use in energy storage systems is investigated. Future scale of electric vehicles, battery degradation and energy storage demand projections are analyzed. Research framework for Li-ion batteries in electric vehicles and energy storage systems is built.
The results show that until 2050, more than 16 TWh of Li-ion batteries are expected to be retired from electric vehicles. If these retired batteries are put into second use, the accumulative new battery demand of battery energy storage systems can be reduced from 2.1 to 5.1 TWh to 0–1.4 TWh under different scenarios, implying a 73–100% decrease.
Volume 10, Issue 13, 15 July 2024, e33800 In recent years, new energy vehicles (NEVs) have taken the world by storm. A large number of NEV batteries have been scrapped, and research on NEV battery recycling is important for promoting the sustainable development of NEVs.
In the cases of moderate BESS deployment, retired EV batteries can meet all the battery demand of BESS, and it can be seen that the future batteries in BESS will be 100% sourced from retired EV batteries. If BESS deployment is aggressive, repurposed batteries are able to meet 58–81% of the demand in 2040 and totally cover it in 2050. Fig. 6.
As a crucial component of EVs, power batteries have become a core part of research and development in the growing market of NEVs. Current, weight, performance, storage capacity, and a lifetime of power batteries are key areas of research that are essential for the continued success of the NEVs market.

Except for China, there is a significant imbalance between the local shares of the passenger car demand and the battery supply chain (Figure 4) [25-27]. For instance, in 2022, Europe had a 21% share of the global new sales of passenger cars, which is considerably more significant than its current share in the supply chain of EV batteries ...
From an energy storage perspective, used batteries can be used secondarily for stationary energy storage in residential buildings, saving homeowners between 24 % and 77 % of the cost and extending the life of electric vehicle batteries by 3–5 years [45, 46].

There are various options for how to best prepare a battery for its second life depending on its condition. A battery that has been taken care of during its first life can sometimes be remanufactured. By replacing the battery''s modules, the unit becomes as good as new and can be mounted back into a vehicle.
Importantly, there is an expectation that rechargeable Li-ion battery packs be: (1) defect-free; (2) have high energy densities (~235 Wh kg −1); (3) be dischargeable within 3 h; (4) have charge/discharges cycles greater than 1000 cycles, and (5) have a calendar life of up to 15 years. 401 Calendar life is directly influenced by factors like depth of discharge, …
Replacement of new energy vehicles (NEVs) i.e., electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy sources by traditional vehicles i.e., fuel vehicles (FVs) and fossil fuels in transportation systems can help for sustainable development of transportation and decrease global carbon emissions due to zero tailpipe emissions (Baars et al., 2020).
Repurposing EV batteries in secondary applications could recoup a portion of that initial cost and reduce upfront EV costs. Further, when integrated in energy storage systems for renewables, second-life batteries could clean the electricity mix for EV charging and alleviate environmental concerns over battery disposal.

In general, if a hybrid battery is still within its expected lifespan and the repair cost is significantly lower than the cost of a new battery, repairing the battery may be a viable option. For example, if a battery has a damaged cell or module, it may be possible to replace the damaged component and restore the battery''s function at a lower cost than a full replacement.
