Whitepaper Battery Repair

From 2024, the new EU Batteries Regulation (BATT2) will gradually force vehicle and battery manufacturers to reduce the carbon footprint of batteries. Among other things, this will be achieved by extending the service life of the battery through repair and reuse and by increasing the proportion of recycled raw materials used in battery production. The repair and reuse of used electric vehicle batteries also make sense from an economic perspective. 

 

Since 2019, Leadec has set up an expert center for new battery-related services in Hoyerswerda and operates its own battery repair center (BRC) there. From this experience, key points can be derived that are decisive for the successful establishment and operation of repair lines and from which future standards can be developed. Find out more in our white paper.

    A Second Life for the Battery

    The battery is the heart of an electric vehicle: not only is it the most important component, but also the most expensive, raw material-intensive one. An intelligent battery management system usually ensures a long life. Nevertheless, a defect cannot be ruled out. In such a case, however, the battery does not have to be recycled directly – the alternative is to repair it.
