The complexity of battery ageing phenomena requires a dedicated analysis in order to evaluate their real capabilities to fulfil the power and energy demands of a certain second life application. In this section, the suitability of second life batteries for operating on a certain application is analysed.
Scrutiny of economic feasibility and profitable uses for second-life batteries. Examination and comparison of power electronics for second-life battery performance. Due to the increasing volume of electric vehicles in automotive markets and the limited lifetime of onboard lithium-ion batteries, the large-scale retirement of batteries is imminent.
Results obtained showed a strong influence of the first life battery ageing history upon the second life battery performance and degradation. Thereby, proper monitoring and battery selection appears crucial to certify the technical viability of battery second life.
Many publications in the literature have analyzed the economic viability of such a solution, and some car manufacturers have recently started running several projects to demonstrate the technical viability of the so-called battery second life.
Nevertheless, the degradation behavior of second life batteries remains unknown and represents one of the biggest gaps in the literature.
Thereby, for the studied Li-ion battery reference, the technical viability of second life use strongly depends on battery ageing history during first life, the point of battery automotive retirement, and the targeted second life application requirements.
