Solution 02/04 · Second Life

A second life
for batteries.

Batteries that no longer meet mobility requirements still hold 60-80% of their original capacity. Repurposed for stationary storage, they deliver value for another 5-10 years before recycling.

Energy Source selects, refurbishes and integrates these batteries into solar storage systems, industrial UPS and light mobility — extracting the maximum from every cell before it returns to the production chain.

Extended lifecycle

A battery doesn't end
when the vehicle does.

Stage 01
100%
Primary life — EV

Full capacity for mobility. Typical cycle: 8-12 years in heavy vehicle use.

Stage 02 · Second Life
80%
Stationary application

Solar storage, UPS, peak shaving. Another 5-10 years of productive useful life.

Stage 03
60%
Light application

Urban mobility, e-bikes, scooters, telecom. Final active phase of the battery.

Stage 04
0%
Hydrometallurgical recycling

Recovery of Li · Co · Ni · Mn. Full return to the production chain.

Applications

Where our
batteries go.

Each chemistry, state of health and form factor finds the ideal application — selected through rigorous technical assessment.

Solar storage

Off-grid and on-grid systems for homes, businesses and rural properties. Integration with standard market inverters.

Industrial UPS

Uninterruptible power systems for industries, data centers, telecom and critical infrastructure.

Light mobility

E-bikes, scooters, tricycles and last-mile vehicles — applications with lower energy density requirements.

Peak shaving

Reduction of industrial energy demand peaks, cutting energy bills and freeing up grid capacity.

Microgrids

Isolated energy networks for rural communities, islands and remote facilities requiring energy autonomy.

Custom solutions

Tailor-made projects for specific demands — capacity, voltage, format and management system adapted to the client.

Your discarded battery
can power the next project.
