In order to make electromobility sustainable, the concepts of second life or efficient recycling of lithium-ion and lithium-ion polymer batteries will play a key role.
The main objective is to find a second use for the batteries used in electromobility after having been used in the vehicle (second life). For example, as stationary storage for solar or wind energy. To analyze the residual capacity, the battery is first fully charged and then discharged in a controlled manner, for example with the help of an EA-PSB 10000, 30kW bidirectional source, the capacity (SOC) and the state of health (SOH) and energy is recovered to the electrical grid with an efficiency of more than 96%.
Before the batteries undergo a final recycling process, they must be fully discharged. The EA-ELR 10000 regenerative electronic load is ideal for this purpose. Also with 30 kW, the devices quickly extract the residual charge from the batteries and return it to the network with an efficiency greater than 96%, thus significantly reducing operating costs.
