This book was released on 2019 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this doctoral research dissertation is to examine sustainable business model (SBM) perspectives for the rapidly developing Battery Second Use (B2U) market within the emerging electric vehicle (EV) industry. Previous research has shown that a global mass market adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is still hindered by the high costs of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Repurposing degraded EV batteries in second use applications holds the potential to reduce first-cost impediments of EVs. The research on new business models is limited. The ones that emerge rapidly within the EV and battery second use (B2U) industries focus mainly on economic aspects without integrating social and environmental dimensions. Simultaneously, the emerging research topic around sustainable business models (SBMs) seem to be able to bridge the environmental management concerns in conjunction with economic and social changes.This thesis further develops and extends extant literature by addressing this paucity through offering an interdisciplinary approach by drawing upon key perspectives from the emerging sustainable technology of EVs and its underlying B2U market in relation to SBMs. The research entails both, qualitative and quantitative assessments, to examine the correlation between SBMs and B2U. Major results indicate that B2U has led to innovative cross-sectoral multi stakeholder business relationships, particularly relevant for the previously isolated automotive and energy markets that are now investigating the full potential of second life batteries and hence new business opportunities for the first time in history. B2U holds the potential to facilitate current unsustainable practices in the EV industry. This in turn, will lead towards a faster EV market uptake and improvements of overall sustainability performance through SBM perspectives. Therefore, it was discovered that prospective innovative business models for B2U, which take a multi-stakeholder network centric business model design rather than firm-centric one, may prove to be a viable business case for sustainability. It was further unearthed that B2U leads to shared sustainable value creation mechanism for the EV industry (and newly emerging stakeholders) as part of innovative SBMs. Therefore, this doctoral dissertation proposes a new B2U innovative business model framework that records and explains the stakeholder relationships as an innovative and forming phenomenon, as well as opens new roads for future discussion among researchers and practitioners. This doctoral dissertation has addressed a paucity and inter-disciplinary literature gap and met an industrial and academic need accordingly. Overall, a new research stream emerges on SBMs for EV B2U and it is hoped that more contributions will follow to increase the impact and value of sustainable waste & resource management and the circular economy.

Currently, batteries based on lithium-ion technology are ranked first in terms of performance, reliability and safety. Though other systems, e.g., metal-air, lithium-sulphur, solid state, and aluminium-ion, are now being investigated, the lithium-ion system is likely to dominate for at least the next decade – which is why several manufacturers, e.g., Toyota, Nissan and Tesla, are chiefly focusing on this technology. Providing comprehensive information on lithium-ion batteries, the book includes contributions by the world’s leading experts on Li-ion batteries and vehicles.

Download or read book Modelling Li ion Battery Aging for Second Life Business Models written by Lluc Canals Casals and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric vehicles are, slowly but steadily, entering into the automotive market. The slow entry is caused, basically, by the high cost of their batteries. Additionally, electric vehicle batteries are considered not useful for traction purposes when they have lost between 20 or 30% of its capacity. At this point, batteries should be recycled by the phew companies capable to do so in Europe, knowing that management of batteries as industrial waste until the recycling factory costs money. In the search of economical incentives and trying to eliminate the recycling costs, the idea of electric vehicle battery reuse for stationary applications appeared, which will take advantage from the benefits of reused batteries selling or by the profit obtained from the 2nd life use. This thesis analyzes the different electric vehicle batteries actually in the market, studying the aspects that should be modified and that have to be taken into account when repurposing them. Moreover, it analyzes the remanufacturing costs taking into account the actual battery checking methods. In order to improve these processes, a novel battery state of health estimation methodology is developed using on-board data. This new methodology observes the voltage recovery evolution when the car stops and relates it to battery aging. This thesis studies the rest of useful life in the different possible applications for second life developing an aging model using Matlab and Simuling tools. This model includes the principal aging factors of a battery and, based on current load requirements and temperature profiles of different stationary applications, it determines their expected lifetime. The presented values can be used, afterwards, for economic evaluation, business model calculations, amortization periods and maintenance schedules. Finally, this thesis finishes with an environmental analysis based on the global warming effect produced by the electric vehicle and the battery reuse during its second life, evaluating their environmental presupposed advantages against internal combustion engine vehicles and the battery reuse in each possible business case. This thesis concludes that electric vehicle battery reuse is surely going to take place sooner or later. The electricity grid is waiting for affordable energy storage systems and battery reuse is foreseen as a good option.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zukünftiges Wachstum des Elektrofahrzeugmarktes wird erwartet, um die Abhängigkeit von fossilen Ressourcen zu verringern und eine Dekarbonisierung zu erreichen. Aus diesem Grund wird der globale Markt für Batterien, ein wesentlicher Bestandteil von Elektrofahrzeugen, zunehmen. Die in den meisten Elektrofahrzeugen verwendeten Lithium-Ionen-Batterien haben jedoch eine Lebensdauer von 8 bis 10 Jahren und haben am Ende noch 80 % ihrer ursprünglichen Kapazität. Daher ist ein Energiespeichersystem, das mit einem erneuerbaren Energiesystem gekoppelt ist, eine Möglichkeit, verbrauchte Elektrofahrzeugbatterien wiederzuverwenden. Diese Diplomarbeit bewertete den Einsatz von neuen und gebrauchten Batterien als Energiespeichersystem gekoppelt mit einer privaten Photovoltaikanlage in einem Einfamilienhaus in Wieselburg, Österreich, hinsichtlich ihrer technisch-wirtschaftlichen Machbarkeit. Zwei Szenarien mit der neuen und der Second-Life-Batterie demonstrieren Energiebilanzen und Wirtschaftlichkeit mit dem Energiesystemdesign-Software Polysun. Die Second-Life-Batterie hat einen höheren Autarkiegrad als die neue Batterie und ihre Vorteile durch die Minimierung der Versorgung aus dem Netz. Der Jahresbarwert des Second-Life-Batteriesystems ist insgesamt höher als der des Neuen, sinkt aber aufgrund des Energieverlustes durch geringen Wirkungsgrad und häufige Austauschzyklen deutlich schneller. Ein weiterer Indikator, die nivellierten Energiekosten, vergleicht, wie preisgünstig jedes Batteriesystem ist, und das Second-Life-Batteriesystem hat einen niedrigeren Preis. Die Diskussion umfasst die Beschränkungen der Second-Life-Batteriekosten und die Genauigkeit der Kapazitäts-Degradationsrate der Batterie. Zusätzlich wurde durch Sensitivitätsanalysen nachgewiesen, ob sich durch den Einsatz der höher als ursprünglich gewählten Leistung der Photovoltaikanlage der dauerhaft negative Barwert entsprechend dem erhöhten Strom verändert, da der dauerhaft negative Barwert nicht rentabel ist. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die Verwendung einer Second-Life-Batterie mit einer privaten Photovoltaikanlage als Energiespeichersystem finanzielle Vorteile hat. Diese Entdeckungen unterstützen das Wachstum und fördern die Verwendung von Second-Life-Batterien anstelle von neuen Batterien.****Future growth of the electric vehicle market is anticipated in order to reduce reliance on fossil resources and attain decarbonization. As a reason, the global market for batteries, a significant portion of electric vehicles, will increase. However, the lithium-ion batteries used in most electric vehicles have an 8 to 10-year lifetime and still have 80% of their original capacity when being retired. Hence, an energy storage system coupled with a renewable energy system is one way to reuse spent electric vehicle batteries. This thesis evaluated the application of new and used batteries as an energy storage system coupled with a residential photovoltaic system in a family home in Wieselburg, Austria, regarding their techno-economic viability. Two scenarios applying the new and the second life battery demonstrate energy balances and profitability using the energy system design program Polysun. The second life battery has a higher self-sufficiency rate than the new battery, and its benefits by minimizing the supply from the grid. The annual net present value of the second life battery system is overall higher than the new one, while it decreases significantly more quickly due to the energy loss brought on by low efficiency and frequent replacement cycles. Another indicator, the Levelized cost of energy, compares how competitively priced each battery system is, and the second life battery system has a lower price. The discussion covers the limitations on second-life battery costs and the accuracy of the battery's capacity degradation rate. Additionally, it was demonstrated by sensitivity analysis whether the continuous negative net present value is changed corresponding to the increased electricity by employing the higher than the initially selected performance of the photovoltaic system since the continuous negative net present value is not profitable. In conclusion, using a second life battery with a residential photovoltaic system as an energy storage system has financial benefits. These discoveries support the growth and promote the use of second life batteries rather than new batteries.
