3 million electric car batteries face recycling, what do you do?

According to foreign media reports, the first batteries of the first electric and hybrid vehicles are approaching the decommissioning period, but they will not be shipped to the landfill, but to help the ice beer in the 7-Elevens store in Japan, charging the USA Car Station power supply, save energy for European family and grid. Lithium-ion batteries of cars and buss are removed from the chassis, they can be used for charging and discharging 7 to 10 years, which will appear for global automakers, power suppliers and raw materials suppliers. big influence.

BLOOMBERGNEF data shows that by 2025, the global electric motor vehicle battery module inventory will exceed 3.4 million (about 55,000 this year), and the way to find this technology has become more and more urgent. my country's electric vehicle sales account for half of the world's total sales, my country's government will implement new regulations in August, so that automakers solve the retired battery, and prohibited from being sent to the landfill.

The European Union also has related regulations, and industry insiders expect the United States to follow. General Motors, BMW, Toyota Motor, BYD, and other renewable energy storage suppliers, are working hard to create after-sales market for electric vehicles, and hope to get extra profits. Electric vehicle battery "Recycling and reuse", and creates a second income stream, which helps reduce the price of electric cars.

Johanstjernberg, CEO of Swedish Energy, and Walvo Cooperation, said: "Automobile manufacturer is about to face a problem, we have begun to see: a large number of retired batteries, its recycling The market will be huge. Bnef is an amazing thing about the forecast of the future ten years. By 2030, electric vehicle battery demand will rise 25 times.

Headquartered in Paris, AvicenneEnergy announced data show that the car has exceeded consumer electronics, becoming the largest lithium-ion battery users. BNEF predicts that by 2040, more than half of the new cars and 1/3 of the world (equivalent to 550 million vehicles) are driven. By 2050, the company will invest about $ 550 billion in household, industrial and grid battery storage.

Reynolds Motor Motor Business Project Manager Cecilesobole said: "The logical principle behind this is a circular economy, and the battery from electric vehicles will become more and more important components of the energy world. However, as many companies have joined, Tesla, the largest electric car manufacturer in the United States is still watching. This company said that after 10 to 15 years of use, its battery may not be suitable for new tasks, and it is currently focusing on recycling raw materials.

If the substance such as cobalt is more favorable, it is easier to manufacture a new battery, so the effort to reuse these substances may slow down. The evidence of the performance of electric vehicle battery performance is that the owner will travel less, and the charging will become more frequent. These components can usually use for about 10 years on household vehicles, and only 4 years can be used on bus and taxis.

Although these replaceable batteries cannot run on the bus, they are ideal for the low tasks, such as the solar panel and wind turbine storage power, and the regular grid storage power when the price is low. London Circulatory Bank Research and Consulting Company founder Hans Eric Merlin said: "Lithium-ion battery will never be scrapped. Just like you can remove the alkaline battery from the flashlight, then put it on the remote control, it is still good enough.

Merlin said that by 2025, about three-quarters of waste electric car batteries will be reused, and then recovered to obtain raw materials. This means that automakers and battery processors can profit from the same product. Swedish energy company BoxOfenergy, London Powervault, and Melbourne RELECTRIFYPTY, is helping to develop electric car batteries "second life".

Many car manufacturers are either cooperating with them or act alone. In the basement of a three-storey apartment building in Western Sweden, Boxofenergy has a silver cabinet with a refrigerator, each with 20 battery modules recovered by Volvo hybrid cars. They can store energy for roof solar panels, and then used to run on public places and lighting.

PowerVault said this technology can reduce home electricity bills by more than 1/3. The company plans to analyze the battery pack of Renault ZoE, this summer is used in England family and schools this summer. PowerVault dishwasher size equipment can calculate when using the grid charging most cost-effective, when using the stored electricity is best.

The 44-year-old Jeffhardy installed PowerVault equipment in the southeast of London, and he expected to save ¡ê 110 annually (about RMB 954). Scholars and advisers in the energy category Hardon pointed out: "This technology can basically supplement my solar demand, let me do more for free. The manufacturing of electric vehicle batteries is really affected by the environment.

In fact, this is a reusable product, which means that this effect can be reduced. "Large system can also reduce the company's cost. Nissan Electric Vehicle Leaf's retired batteries will soon be able to illuminate the streets of Namie, Japan.

Yang Yang is recovering from the nearby Fukushimadaiichi in 2011. Next year, the manufacturer of Prius hybrid vehicles Toyota will install retired batteries outside the 7-Eleven store in Japan. Hybrid lithium ion batteries will store the energy of the solar panel, then use juice when you want to help run the beverage cooler, fried chicken heating and sausage grill, etc.

Tomzhao, general manager of the Global Sales Director of BYD By, said that typical electric car batteries still retain about 50% to 70% of electricity after demolition. This company supported by Warren Buffett uses second-hand battery packs for wireless transmission tower, and helps run one of the largest energy storage systems in Shenzhen. Tomzhao said: "If you don't reuse them, it will be huge waste.
