Key stakeholders that would perform these tests include second-life battery repurposers and battery diagnosticians developing performance models.

Key Points: 
  • Key stakeholders that would perform these tests include second-life battery repurposers and battery diagnosticians developing performance models.
  • However, physics-based battery modeling is incredibly complex, as all conventional materials and properties need to be known to fully model different aspects of a battery.
  • To find out more considerations about the testing and modeling of retired EV battery performance, please refer to IDTechEx's new report " Second-life Electric Vehicle Batteries 2023-2033 ".
  • The report includes more on the following information: second-life regulatory landscape, battery technology developments, second-life battery techno-economic analysis, key player activity, and 10-year forecasts for the second-life market (GWh installed) and EV battery availability.
