GM Looks to Give EV Batteries a Life After Cars - NYTimes.com
As electric vehicles creep toward general market readiness, automakers and grid experts are looking for ways to make electrified transportation work seamlessly with power systems. Finding new markets for car batteries that are no longer fit for vehicles could trim the cost they add to auto manufacturing, while also providing energy storage options for utilities.
"The Volt's battery will have significant capacity to store electrical energy, even after its automotive life," said Micky Bly, GM's executive director of electrical systems, hybrids, electric vehicles and batteries, in announcing a research tie-up between the two companies that will focus on GM's all-electric car due out this year. "Our relationship with ABB will help develop solutions that optimize the full life cycle of the Volt battery."
