However, spent batteries are commonly less reliable than fresh batteries due to their degraded performance, thereby necessitating a comprehensive assessment from safety and economic perspectives before further utilization. To this end, this paper reviews the key technological and economic aspects of second-life batteries (SLBs).
Currently, the predominant type of battery being repurposed for a second life is the lithium-ion battery. This is due to their widespread use in EVs, and their relatively high energy density compared to other battery chemistries.
The lithium-ion battery industry operates within an intricate chain involving manufacturers, electric vehicle producers, consumers, refurbishment firms, and recycling companies. Refurbishment and recycling companies, specializing in retired batteries, seek profits from low-priced units but struggle with lowering refurbishment costs.
However, compared to fresh lithium-ion batteries, retired batteries potentially pose higher safety threats due to prolonged use and internal anomalies like gas generation and lithium plating. Challenges arise when assessing the safety performance of retired batteries since they have typically undergone complex degradation processes.
These retired batteries can still retain 70%–80% of their original capacity and can be utilized in scenarios with lower energy and power requirements, such as energy storage stations or communication base stations . In this way, the value of LIBs can be maximized in their second-life applications.
