(SEAT) Strategic Consulting. Second life of batteries

One Solar has been selected by a leading European automotive group to provide specialized assistance in the integrated management of end-of-life (ELV) electric vehicles. This project focuses mainly on the evaluation and development of alternatives for the revaluation of electric vehicle batteries, a crucial component from both an economic and environmental point of view.

The role of One Solar in this project includes multiple facets. Firstly, the company has provided technical support to establish efficient and safe procedures for the transport of end-of-life vehicles, ensuring compliance with all European safety and environmental regulations and standards. In addition, they have worked on defining methodologies for the proper disassembly of batteries, a process that requires high precision and technical knowledge to avoid damage and maximize the recovery of valuable materials.

Another key area of collaboration has been the analysis of the state of health (SOH) of the batteries. One Solar has implemented advanced methodologies to assess the viability and efficiency of used batteries, determining their potential to be reused, recycled or sold in secondary markets. This analysis is critical to ensure that batteries that still have significant value are reintroduced into the value chain, thereby reducing waste and promoting the circular economy.

Furthermore, One Solar has offered its expertise in battery packaging according to ADR regulations, which govern the transport of dangerous goods, ensuring that all handling and transportation processes for these batteries are carried out safely and in compliance with the law.

Finally, the company has played a crucial role in the definition of the contractual conditions for the sale of used batteries, facilitating the bidding process transparent and competitive to ensure the best possible return for batteries at the end of their life cycle.

In summary, One Solar has provided a comprehensive set of services that not only enable efficient and safe management of end-of-life electric vehicles, but also promote sustainability through the revaluation and reuse of batteries, thus contributing to the creation of a more sustainable life cycle for electric vehicles in Europe.
