Energy storage systems are especially beneficial for operations with high electricity demand or fluctuations in usage. Installing an ESS not only cuts energy costs but also improves power quality, making it indispensable for critical processes. Utility-scale energy storage systems have a transformative impact on the broader electricity grid.
One of the main challenges in using 2nd life batteries is determining and predicting the end of life. As it is done for the first life usage, the state of health (SoH) decrease for 2nd life batteries is also commonly fixed to 20%, leading to an end of life (EoL) capacity of 60% [12, 13].This EoL criterion is mainly driven by the start of non-linear ageing.
