With deployments on a gigawatt-hour (GWh) scale of ESS battery systems planned, research indicates that the industry must address an approach for managing the extensive fleet of advanced industrial batteries that are being deployed now and will need to be managed responsibly upon reaching end-of-life in future years. Managing advanced industrial batteries after their useful lives poses unique challenges for many stakeholders in the industry value chain. The need to recycle lithium-ion batteries needs to be factored into each stage of their lives. That’s because lithium-ion batteries are classified as hazardous waste upon reaching end-of-life (EOL), and lithium ion batteries are designed, built, and traded without recycling in mind. With the growing demand of lithium-ion batteries for both energy storage systems (ESS) and EVs comes the growing responsibility for the industry to “address and approach for managing the extensive fleet of advanced industrial batteries that are being deployed now,” according to the Energy Storage Association. Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are the fastest growing and most promising battery chemistry. ![]() ![]() With renewable energy on the upswing and automakers adding more and more electric vehicles (EVs) into their catalogs, battery-based energy storage is coming into its own. Technology advances, electrification of our economy, and the pressing climate crisis are transforming the way we use electricity and are mobile.
