There is a growing demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) for electric transportation and to support the application of renewable energies by auxiliary energy storage systems. This surge in demand requires a concomitant increase in production and, down the line, leads to large numbers of spent LIBs. The ever-increasing battery waste …

Second-life lithium-ion batteries are usually repurposed for applications that require less energy, such as home energy storage systems or load-levelling in grid-connected systems. In these applications, the batteries can still provide a significant amount of value, even if they are no longer suitable for high-performance applications such as EVs.
