Ladders use waste lithium batteries to become a new trend in the industry

With the popularization of new energy vehicles, power batteries are not only the key technology to reduce the overall price of automobiles, but also a major challenge to the environment in the next five years. According to the China Automotive Technology and Research Center, in 2020, the scrapped amount of electric vehicle batteries will reach 12-17 million.

The lithium content in the power battery is balanced in the world, and China's development of lithium resources is at the leading position. In terms of reserves, compared with South America, which is the most resource-rich, China has the second largest reserves in the world, with a total volume of 5.25 million tons, but in 2015 it has reached 200,000 tons. The continuous consumption of lithium resources not only affects the sales price of power batteries, but also puts new demands on battery recycling.

Battery materials are hotspots for R&D and industrialization. Whether it is a positive electrode material or a negative electrode with carbon materials, it is well received by the market. Among them, silicon carbon anode materials are research and development hotspots. The different positive and negative materials and formulas of various manufacturers make the disassembly and recovery of power batteries face complexity. It seems that the simplest is to lower the standard of use.

In the recycling and recycling of automobile batteries, the use of ladders is currently the most important promotion method, because electric vehicles have a very high standard for battery density and stability. According to industry insiders, when the charge reaches 80% and cannot continue to increase, the car battery is declared scrapped. The scrapped battery is more than enough for low-speed electric vehicles such as the old scooter and the use of municipal emergency lighting.

Amazing ladders of lithium batteries are used as "fragrant"

The "Energy Conservation and New Energy Vehicle Industry Development Plan" requires strengthening the recycling of power battery cascades, and clarifying the responsibilities, rights and obligations of all parties in the establishment of management methods and systems. The government should not only guide battery manufacturers to recycle batteries, but also encourage the development of specialized battery recycling companies.

It can be seen that the recycling of electric vehicle batteries requires a responsibility extension from the battery manufacturer to build a recycling system. This field is also bound to become a new opportunity for the development of innovative enterprises. In the construction of battery packs, they not only have to solve the difference in battery performance caused by different driver habits in the use of batteries. At the same time, in terms of installation, it is also necessary to establish a more uniform interface and wire standard.

If the battery is used in a cascade, more people, including the owner, will share the purchase cost and lower the price. Recently, GM announced that it will formulate a plan for the development of secondary utilization technology for electric vehicle batteries as soon as possible.

For the current market situation of power battery recycling, a person in charge of a new energy vehicle manufacturer told reporters that the new energy vehicle market is still in the stage of crazy car purchase. The government subsidies are mainly for automobile manufacturers and consumers, while battery manufacturers are busy with orders that are in short supply. Take into account the layout of the battery recycling period. Therefore, it is very likely that there will be a surge in the storage of used batteries in the future. In a short period of time, the phenomenon that the batteries are disposed of at will is difficult to block.

Due to the strong downstream demand for new energy vehicles, the supply of power batteries will continue to be in short supply. A person in charge of a new energy investment company told reporters that this phenomenon is expected to continue for 1-2 years, and potential investors' quotations will continue to rise.

However, some cities' subsidy policies are guiding companies to plan ahead. Shanghai has issued a policy. Every time a car company recycles a set of power batteries, it will receive a government subsidy of 1,000 yuan. In Shenzhen, each car subsidizes 300 yuan, and the company takes out 600 yuan to establish a recycling mechanism for power batteries.

However, if the power battery is used only by the ladder, it still cannot solve the continuous exploitation of lithium resources, which will also cause resource shortage. In the opinion of experts, there is still no solution to the recycling of new energy vehicle batteries, but technological advancement and alternative energy development will effectively solve this problem.
