“…Lithium-ion batteries are the most efficient and highly marketed rechargeable batteries at present. These batteries have been employed in numerous applications, such as consumer electronics, stationary energy storage systems, electric/hybrid vehicles, etc. − However, Li-ion batteries encounter setbacks such as capacity loss due to a resistive layer at the interface (SEI), electrolyte decomposition at higher voltages, and inherent safety issues …”

The development of solid state batteries is constrained by imperative factors like the high reactivity of lithium with solid electrolytes, high grain boundary resistance of the solid electrolyte, and interfacial resistance between the solid electrolyte and electrodes. In the present work we exploited Li1.5Al0.5Ge1.5(PO4)3 (LAGP) as a solid electrolyte and noticed a spontaneous reactivity of lithium with LAGP. Further, we observed that introduction of a wetted polypropylene (PP) layer between LAGP and lithium successfully prevented the undesirable reaction between lithium and the surface of the solid electrolyte. Aside from that, it also considerably decreased the interfacial resistance and polarization. This strategy has been applied to both Li-ion and Li–S battery systems, and we observed considerable improvement in the electrochemical performance of these solid state devices. The lithium ion battery retained 100% capacity and Coulombic efficiency after 50 cycles with an observed capacity of 190 mAhg–1. After 200 cycles with varying C-rates, 98.5% capacity retention is observed. Similarly, in the Li–S battery, LAGP effectively restricted the polysulfide shuttle and maintained 78% of the initial capacity after 200 cycles. Such high capacity retention is the outcome of the PP layer which functions as an interlayer that protects the LAGP surface against reacting with the lithium metal anode as inferred by post-mortem analysis.

“…Second use also reduces the ecological footprint by reducing the need for new batteries (and thus new materials) for storage systems as well as by extending the lifespan of existing batteries and slowing the flow of used batteries that have to be recycled [29]. As an example, the calendar life for lithium-ion batteries is nearly 20 years [27,30] and the EV use phase is just about 8 years [31] (dependent on driving and charging behaviour [32]).…”

The global demand for electricity is rising due to the increased electrification of multiple sectors of economic activity and an increased focus on sustainable consumption. Simultaneously, the share of cleaner electricity generated by transient, renewable sources such as wind and solar energy is increasing. This has made additional buffer capacities for electrical grids necessary. Battery energy storage systems have been investigated as storage solutions due to their responsiveness, efficiency, and scalability. Storage systems based on the second use of discarded electric vehicle batteries have been identified as cost-efficient and sustainable alternatives to first use battery storage systems. Large quantities of such batteries with a variety of capacities and chemistries are expected to be available in the future, as electric vehicles are more widely adopted. These batteries usually still possess about 80% of their initial capacity and can be used in storage solutions for high-energy as well as high-power applications, and even hybrid solutions encompassing both. There is, however, no holistic review of current research on this topic. This paper first identifies the potential applications for second use battery energy storage systems making use of decommissioned electric vehicle batteries and the resulting sustainability gains. Subsequently, it reviews ongoing research on second use battery energy storage systems within Europe and compares it to similar activities outside Europe. This review indicates that research in Europe focuses mostly on “behind-the-meter” applications such as minimising the export of self-generated electricity. Asian countries, especially China, use spent batteries for stationary as well as for mobile applications. In developing countries, off-grid applications dominate. Furthermore, the paper identifies economic, environmental, technological, and regulatory obstacles to the incorporation of repurposed batteries in second use battery energy storage systems and lists the developments needed to allow their future uptake. This review thus outlines the technological state-of-the-art and identifies areas of future research on second use battery energy storage systems.

“…This high initial cost remains as one of the primary obstacles to the selection/implementation of Li-ion batteries in stationary systems [33]. Nevertheless, in UPS applications dominated by VRLA batteries, Li-ion batteries are fast gaining market share, and as power demands of UPS systems increase, it is expected that Li-ion batteries will become more common [53,59,60].…”

Stationary battery systems are becoming increasingly common worldwide. Energy storage is a key technology in facilitating renewable energy market penetration and battery energy storage systems have seen considerable investment for this purpose. Large battery installations such as energy storage systems and uninterruptible power supplies can generate substantial heat in operation, and while this is well understood, the thermal management systems that currently exist have not kept pace with stationary battery installation development. Stationary batteries operating at elevated temperatures experience a range of deleterious effects and, in some cases, serious safety concerns can arise. Optimal thermal management prioritizes safety and balances costs between the cooling system and battery degradation due to thermal effects. Electric vehicle battery thermal management has undergone significant development in the past decade while stationary battery thermal management has remained mostly stagnant, relying on the use of active and passive air cooling. Despite being the default method for thermal management, there is an absence of justifying research or comparative reviews. This literature review seeks to define the role of stationary battery systems in modern power applications, the effects that heat generation and temperature have on the performance of these systems, thermal management methods, and future areas of study.
