However, as the number of EVs on our roads continues to grow, so too does the number of old EV batteries requiring responsible disposal. According to estimates from EECA, an EV battery is expected to last 10 to 20 years (and more than 350,000km!) before it’s range capacity diminishes. How would the scheme work?

The E-STOR technology developed by Connected Energy uses second-life batteries from Renault electric vehicles. With the E-STOR system, the batteries are recharged at low power, and the stored energy is then released at high power. Electric vehicle batteries generally have a service life of eight to ten years.
