To better understand the current research status, this article reviews the research progress of second-life lithium-ion batteries for stationary energy storage applications, including battery aging mechanisms, repurposing, modeling, battery management, and optimal sizing.

Will there be a second-life battery supply in 2030?

This indicates a greater potential supply of second-life batteries in the next decade (2030 -). The enormity of these figures underscores the urgency in devising strategies for the cost-effective reutilization of these batteries. Thus, a technical assessment procedure for retired batteries is imperative.

What is a second-life battery screening process?

The overall purpose of these steps is to screen out the cells that cannot meet the requirements of second-life applications and regroup the batteries with a close level of degradation and similar electrochemical performances. Screening involves assessing mechanical integrity, evaluating electrochemical performance, and assessing safety.

Are SLB batteries good for second-life applications?

As mentioned in Section 3, batteries with different SOH levels would be available for second-life applications. Typically, SLBs with a higher remaining capacity yield more revenue, but they may come at a higher cost. To make effective use of SLBs, the cost of maintaining and refurbishing these batteries must be outweighed by their benefits.
