Electric vehicles may emit less pollution compared to traditional gasoline cars, however, their production process through mining and manufacturing still has an impact on the environment. To optimize the utilization of these batteries, repurposing old EV batteries can be a sustainable solution. Moreover, batteries in electric vehicles can also play a crucial role in storing renewable energy such as solar power, thereby reducing its intermittency issue. Recently, B2U Storage Solutions has made a significant achievement by accumulating 25MWh of solar energy storage capacity by utilizing second-life batteries from Honda and Nissan, which was declared on Tuesday. The Lancaster, California-based facility … Continue reading Repurposed EV Batteries Show Promise for Large-Scale Solar Energy Storage Applications
