DAY 2: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 2021
0900 - 0930 MORNING REFRESHMENTS
0930 - 0940 OPENING ADDRESS
0940 - 1010 REPURPOSING RESPONSIBLY – THE WORLD'S FIRST SECOND-LIFE BATTERY SAFETY STANDARD
- Lithium-ion batteries are not readily recyclable. Unlike lead-acid batteries, the entity disposing of a lithium-ion battery has to pay for it to be recycled
- Automotive OEMs are diving into 2nd life or stationary applications because of commercial reasons and to improve the carbon footprint
- UL 1974 helps to standardize and qualify used batteries against this world´s first standard to facilitate new businesses and applications using used material
