Reusing EV batteries for energy storage can offer greater carbon savings than direct recycling
When electric vehicle (EV) batteries reach the end of their service life, they can be recycled to recover valuable raw materials for the production of new batteries. Alternatively, retired EV batteries can be repurposed for ...
Using the California example, a team of researchers analysed how used batteries of e-cars should be used in countries with a lot of green electricity. The results show which scenario offers the best effects in the long term for climate and security of supply. The article E-car batteries: Better recycling or reuse? appeared first on ingenieur.de - Jobbörse und Nachrichtenportal für Ingenieure.
Scientists from Germany and the USA have investigated whether depleted batteries of electric cars should be immediately fed into recycling. In the sense of a CO2 balance as cheap as possible, the answer is: better not.Batteries for electric cars, which are produced with the highest possible proportion of recycled material, cause less greenhouse gas emissions than those where the critical raw materials come completely directly from the mine. This…
Electric vehicle batteries - Prioritize reuse before recycling
29.07.2025 - A research team has compared different approaches to utilizing end-of-life electric vehicle batteries, using California as a case study. When electric vehicle (EV) batteries reach the end of their service life, they can be recycled to recover valuable raw materials for the production of new batteries.
