Second-Life EV Batteries Power Charging Hubs
As the number of retired EV batteries grows, second-life applications are becoming a cornerstone of sustainable charging. Charging hubs are beginning to use repurposed EV batteries as energy storage units, enabling operators to balance grid loads and cut energy costs. For Charge Point Operators (CPOs), this trend opens new revenue models based on storage services and energy arbitrage.
