In this article, we will explore what happens to old EV batteries in New Zealand and why it’s essential to dispose of them properly. A battery in its second life can serve a variety of purposes, such as: Providing stability to the power grid. So, what happens to EV batteries once they have done their dash?

That need for balance is true of electric power grids, too. Spiking demand for electric heat collided with supply problems created by frozen natural-gas equipment and below-average wind-power production. Packetized energy management (PEM) allows the power grid to flexibly handle a varying supply of renewable energy. Here’s how.

It’s very similar to the infrastructure for electric cars because the idea, ultimately, for electric cars is that you also are revamping your grid to facilitate, whatchamacallit, intermittent renewable energy sources, like wind and solar, because having an electric car that runs off a coal-fired power plant is defeating the purpose, essentially.
