The #electricalvehicle industry is growing at an astounding rate. However, #batteries are often discarded improperly after use, leading to huge #environmental challenges. For instance, fires and toxic gases in landfills due to dumped lithium-ion batteries are a growing issue.

🔋♻️ Lithium-ion batteries still have a high energy density at the end of their first life. Hence, it is important that batteries are #reused in second-life applications before landing in #waste streams. Source: Gavin D H Harper et al (2023) J. Phys. Energy 5 021501
