The cost of Li-ion batteries currently affects the affordability of plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles (PHEV/EV) for consumers. While these PHEV/EV batteries degraded to 70%-80% of their original power/capacity are insufficient for automotive use, these aged batteries may still be useful and could be reused in other applications.

Stanford University researchers have devised a new way to make lithium-ion battery packs last longer and suffer less deterioration from fast charging. Related research has centered on single lithium-ion cells, which generally don’t lose charge capacity as quickly as full battery packs do. —Simona Onori. Resources.
