Abstract

Rapid growth in electric vehicle sector has resulted in a substantial increase in the manufacturing and usage of lithium-ion batteries which create challenges that are related to battery degradation and end-of-life management. During vehicle operation, there is a fade and increased internal resistance in EVs, and when state of health (SoH) reduces to approximately 70–80%, they will be no longer suitable for traction applications despite retaining significant residual capacity. This remaining one can be effectively utilized for low-power and stationary applications through appropriate testing, grading and reconfiguration. Therefore, the secondary-life deployment of the retired EV batteries offers a technically viable and environmentally sustainable approach to extend battery life, reduce waste, and improve overall resource utilization.
