This report analyzes the state of the art of the current legislation and standard regulations in general concerning technical and legal requirements, together with safety issues, relative to disassembly and re-manufacturing, transportation and storage of reusable/recyclable parts and components, extended producer responsibility (EPR) regarding new parts and products put on the market. These topics were mainly focused on the batteries value chain by identifying limits and barriers of the current legislation and standard regulations for the development of CarE Service project, and furthermore by elaborating proposals to remove these limits and barriers with the clear indications of potential benefit associated.
The contents of this report were used to elaborate this deliverable as a formal position paper with proposals on legislation and standard regulations to be submitted to the relevant European stakeholders (CEN- CENELEC, Standardization Committee, National and Regional Authorities, European Commission).
This report is a living and dynamic document due to the upcoming changes in the EU regulations for the revision of the Battery Directive, the ELV Directive and the battery sustainability initiatives.
Thus, this is the first version, potentially upgradeable up to the end of the CarE-Service project.

Requirements for generalization of the approach to EU industryOlgaRodrguezLargo
Identifying some criteria to generalize the results of a research project on the Circular Economy on a European scale requires a broader competence on products end of life products combined with an ability to predict which will be the most relevant trend lines that will influence the technologies and economic dynamics of products end of life in the coming years.
This deliverable highlights that there various types of criteria: some are of a general nature, cross-cutting and allow the project to be strengthened in terms of its European value, while others are more specific and expendable on the three specific value chains that, by integrating them, have surely more chances to be recognized and appreciated in European terms.
The work is not limited to a mere statement of general criteria, but also provides some examples and operating suggestions for the transformation of these European criteria for valid operational suggestions for future activities of CarE-Service project.

The point of view of automotive remanufacturing operators by APRA EuropeOlgaRodrguezLargo
Presentation by APRA Europe about the point of view of automotive remanufacturing operators in the Final CarE-Service Exploitation webinar held on 25th November 2021
This report presents a preliminary analysis of the three re-use value-chains (battery, metals and techno-polymers) of CarE-Service Project in order to derive specific process requirements to be furtherly implemented and demonstrated.
The main objective is to propose an optimal management of End of Life (EoL) Electric and Hybrid Electric Vehicles (E&HEV), requiring proper technologies and ad hoc processes. The aim is the reduction of wasted materials in landfills or incinerators and the recovery of components with residual properties as re-used products or chemical compounds as secondary raw materials. In particular, the automotive target parts are:
batteries, representing the main innovation in E&HEVs;
techno-polymers, whose amount is increased to reduce the wholeweight of E&HEVs;
and metals.
To properly derive robust requirements addressing real needs for future sustainability, a great effort has been spent involving all relevant actors for the development of innovative technical solutions for future services at all supply chain levels. Therefore, State of Art analysis and in-depth interviews have been carried out with the key-players of the future de-manufacturing value-chains. Once collected all the information, several potential scenarios have been analysed and detailed schemes of the three main value-chains have been defined.
Finally, an in-sight view of the current re-design practices and European laws and directives addressing the EoL of automotive products is drawn to identify the limits concretely bounding the market exploitation of CarE-Service results.

Real-drive emissions and the impact of the VW scandal on the future of the au...Leonardo ENERGY
On 18th of September 2015, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a Notice of Violation of the Clean Air Act accusing Volkswagen of having equipped its US diesel models with a “defeat device” software. In real-life conditions, the emissions were 10 to 40 times above those measured during the official testing.
Around 500,000 cars in the US and over 11 million cars worldwide have been equipped with the rigged engine Type EA189. The so-called “Diesel Gate” quickly sparked global outrage, leading to the resignation of VW CEO, Martin Winterkorn, who was replaced by Matthias Müller, former Porsche CEO and putting the entire sector under suspicion.
Most EU countries ordered investigations to be conducted on random vehicles to verify their compliance with Euro norms. The scandal broke out at a crucial time for the automotive sector as the EU is in the process of adopting a “real-drive emissions test” (RDE). The European Commission found itself also under high pressure as the media accused it of being too com-placent towards the car industry while being aware of the real-drive emissions gap since many years.

As part of the project, we are collecting a digest of new materials on the topic of transport and electric transport. Reports of international organizations, news for the last two months
An overview of potential future lifecycle impacts of low carbon vehicles. Shifting to hybrid and electric vehicles will mean that an increasing share of lifecycle GHG emissions come from the production of the vehicle and electricity. Presentation given at the annual LowCVP conference by Nik Hill, knowledge leader for transport technology at Ricardo-AEA
A report commissioned by T&E and Greenpeace suggests the EU can more than halve its existing carbon dioxide emissions from new cars with existing technology. The report, by Ricardo-AEA, says the right mixture of electric, hybrid and conventionally-fuelled cars will enable Europe to reach a target of 60 grams per kilometre from the average new car in 2025.
In 2011, the average emissions from new cars sold in the EU was 136 g/km. A 95g target has been set for 2020, although MEPs and ministers are still working out how this will be achieved. The USA aims to halve emissions from new cars by 2025 and environmental campaigners are keen to ensure the EU matches America’s level of ambition.
The T&E/Greenpeace study shows that a target of 60g could be achieved if up to 24% of new vehicles were electric, another 24% hybrids and the remaining 52% conventional (petrol and diesel) cars. A target of 70g would require only a modest share of electric cars (7%), which is at the very low-end of conservative market projections for electric vehicles by 2025. The remainder would come from hybrids (22%) and conventional petrol/diesel cars (71%). A supporting briefing prepared by T&E shows that the costs of technology are likely to be paid back within a few years.
T&E cars officer Greg Archer said: ‘This report helps bring some clarity about what can be achieved with existing technology and with a modest boost from sales of electric cars. Setting a 2025 target now will give the industry the regulatory certainty it needs to invest in electric alternatives now.”

Capacity charging mechanism for shared CO2 transportation and storage infrast...Global CCS Institute
While technical and legal barriers to CCS are diminishing, the difficulty in building a sound commercial case for the development and operation of CCS infrastructure remains a serious obstacle. One way to significantly reduce the cost of CCS is to realise economies of scale by sharing a single CO2 transportation and storage infrastructure system among several operators of CO2 capture plants.
This webinar, presented by Calum Hughes, Director - CCS at Yellow Wood Energy and Dave Bevan, Commercial Developer at National Grid Carbon (UK), will provide insight into the commercial charging mechanism developed by National Grid for a shared CCS infrastructure system. In particular, various options for allocating system development and operational costs between members of an infrastructure network will be explored.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvementIshaGoswami9
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
DERIVATION OF MODIFIED BERNOULLI EQUATION WITH VISCOUS EFFECTS AND TERMINAL V...Wasswaderrick3
In this book, we use conservation of energy techniques on a fluid element to derive the Modified Bernoulli equation of flow with viscous or friction effects. We derive the general equation of flow/ velocity and then from this we derive the Pouiselle flow equation, the transition flow equation and the turbulent flow equation. In the situations where there are no viscous effects , the equation reduces to the Bernoulli equation. From experimental results, we are able to include other terms in the Bernoulli equation. We also look at cases where pressure gradients exist. We use the Modified Bernoulli equation to derive equations of flow rate for pipes of different cross sectional areas connected together. We also extend our techniques of energy conservation to a sphere falling in a viscous medium under the effect of gravity. We demonstrate Stokes equation of terminal velocity and turbulent flow equation. We look at a way of calculating the time taken for a body to fall in a viscous medium. We also look at the general equation of terminal velocity.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

proposals to remove these limits and barriers with the clear indications of potential benefit associated.
The contents of D8.5 were used to elaborate this deliverable as a formal position paper with proposals on
legislation and standard regulations to be submitted to the relevant European stakeholders (CEN-
CENELEC, Standardization Committee, National and Regional Authorities, European Commission).
D8.6 is a living and dynamic document due to the upcoming changes in the EU regulations for the revision
of the Battery Directive, the ELV Directive and the battery sustainability initiatives.
Thus, this is the first version of D8.6, potentially upgradeable up to the end of the CarE-Service project
(M36).

1 INTRODUCTION AND OBJECT
Deliverable 8.5 focused on the analysis of the current legislation and standards (concerning legal, safety
and technical requirements about de-manufacturing and re-manufacturing, transportation and storage of
reusable/recyclable parts and components, extended producer responsibility (EPR) for new parts and
products put on the market), in order to identify limits and barriers for the development of CarE Service
project and to exploit the potentials of circular economy of E&HEVs.
Considering the three main streams of CarE Service project (batteries, metal parts and techno-polymers),
the real criticalities concerned mainly the batteries stream; this is the reason why D8.5 focused exclusively
on the batteries value chain.
In D8.5 precise limitations and barriers posed by the existing standardization and regulatory framework for
the implementation of the most important targets regarding batteries in the CarE Service project were
identified, with the aim of proposing solutions to remove them.
Two main frameworks were in general identified to highlight existing limits and barriers:
• Legal and administrative: relative to important lack of 'design and use' requirements to enhance
battery sustainability, lack of coherence between different regulatory instruments, to ensure
smooth functioning of the internal market for batteries, waste batteries and materials obtained
from recycled batteries and how to facilitate the use of batteries in second-life applications.
• Technical: relative to significant gaps regarding manufacturing requirements in order to maximize
re-use and second-life applications, and also gaps regarding requirements for second-life
applications. Furthermore, very important gaps were also identified for the final recycling and
recovery of waste batteries.
This deliverable, by using the contents and results of D.8.5, is an official position paper with specific
proposals on legislation and standard regulations to be submitted to the relevant European stakeholders
(CEN-CENELEC, Standardization Committee, National and Regional Authorities, ACEA, European
Commission), in order to remove limits and barriers for the development of some basic processes along
the batteries value chain in CarE-Service project.

2 PROPOSALS TO REMOVE LIMITS AND BARRIERS
2.1 Proposals to remove legal and administrative gaps
2.1.1 EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) transferability
EPR is the principle according to which producers are responsible for the correct management of waste
generated by the put on the market of their products.
Currently, the responsibility for the correct management of an end-of-life battery is laying on the first
producer which put it on the market (where “first producer”, according to the law, is any person in a
Member State that, irrespective of the selling technique used, places batteries or accumulators, including
those incorporated into appliances or vehicles, on the market for the first time); EPR isn’t transferable, and
no one can get it.
The actor who is putting on the market a second-life battery pack, should bear obligations pertinent to
their responsibility as a producer, including the possibility of full or partial transfer of the EPR from the first
producer to the second one.
The original assumptions are the following:
• in the National Register, together with the other information requested, it should be provided (at
least for industrial and automotive batteries) the declaration of the serial number of the battery
• the legislation in force should introduce the concept of the “Authorized representative” for foreign
producer
Starting from these original assumptions, we can have two different scenarios:
1- Reuse of the battery as product (no end-of-life)
The battery can be addressed to second applications without becoming waste.
The different options can be the following:
a) The battery is sold/delivered by the first producer (for instance the car manufacturer) to a second
producer in the same country
The second producer indicates in the National Register the serial number of the battery that he received
from the first producer, also with the percentage of the weight of the battery concretely re-used.
The first producer must confirm in the National Register its agreement to the EPR transferring (total or
partial).
1. The joint declaration between the first and second producer validate the EPR transfer (total or
partial);
2. The second producer must declare on the National Register the new second-life battery put on the
market, attributing to it a new brand and a new serial number and becoming totally responsible for its
end-of-life management (new EPR).
7. [30.11.2019] [CarE-Service GA No.: 776851] Page 6
b) The battery is sold/delivered by the first producer (for instance the car manufacturer) to a second
producer in a foreign country
1. The first producer must indicate in its National Register the serial number of the battery to be
sold/delivered through its “Authorized Representative” to a second producer in a new country. Then
the first producer must report in the foreign National Register (to which is obliged to enroll through
its “Authorized Representative”) the battery put on the market, with its serial number. In that way,
the record with all the information regarding the battery put on the market moves from the National
Register in the original country to the National Register in the foreign country. EPR moves from the
first country to the second one being assumed by the “Authorized Representative”, which assumes in
the new country the role of first producer.
2. The following steps are the same of the previous point “a”.
For the “reusers”, i.e. actors willing to work with batteries for a second life, a “license” should be
required that guarantees equal conditions for handling the batteries (e.g. electrical safety of the
facilities, staff well instructed, fire extinguish controls, user warranties) with a “EU manufactured
Stamp” as a sign of high quality.
2- Re-use of the battery declared waste (end-of-life)
If the battery has been declared waste, for instance by a car’s dismantler, it cannot be re-used without
applying to it the End-of-Waste status (see the following paragraph).
If the battery respects all the technical and safety requirements to be reclassified from waste to good,
the EPR transfer will follow the steps of the points “a” and “b” described above.
2.1.2 “End of Waste” regulation
The possibility of reusing (totally or partially) an end-of-life battery coming from an electrified vehicle,
which is a waste, for a different application, should provide the application of the “end-of-waste” status.
Second use of batteries fulfils the End-of-Waste criteria (as they defined in Article 6, §1 of Waste
Framework Directive 2008/98/EC) which are described as follows:
a. the substance or object is commonly used for specific purposes: Several studies and analysis
indicate that end-of-life HEV-EVs batteries may still have residual charge capacity (75-80%) to be
suitable for new second-life applications, for instance in energy storage. The intrinsic lower
capacity of the batteries/modules/cells isn’t a critical gap for energy storage applications in which
the need of space is not a fundamental issue (unlike in automotive applications) and the residual
gap can be easily solved with the implementation of more battery packs.
b. there is an existing market or demand for the substance or object: The strong development of
renewable sources, firmly sustained in Europe by specific programs and energy politics, already
needs new big systems to store the produced energy, and forecasts show exponential increasing
8. [30.11.2019] [CarE-Service GA No.: 776851] Page 7
for the future. The growth in demand for electrical storage systems can be supplied by end-of-life
batteries coming from the growing market of electrified mobility, in a virtuosic circular economy
perspective.
c. the use is lawful (substance or object fulfils the technical requirements for the specific purposes
and meets the existing legislation and standards applicable to products): Even if the original
battery is de-manufactured, the original cells are left intact and they have to be checked and
tested before being re-manufactured in a new battery pack. Technical and safety standards in
second-life batteries must be compliant with the same requirements foreseen for a new battery
d. the use will not lead to overall adverse environmental or human health impacts: Cells or modules
correctly checked and tested, then re-manufactured in new second-life batteries in accordance to
the same technical and safety standards of a new battery, should not pose any risk for the
environment or human health.
These assumptions had been adopted in The Netherlands by the Ministry of Infrastructure and
Environment, specifically with the “Legal judgement End-of-Waste status lithium-ion cells” of 22
September 2017, Reference IENM/BSK-2017/215501.
2.1.3 Harmonization required between ELV Directive, new Battery Directive, Directive
2005/64/EC and REACH regulations
Regulations concerning reusability of batteries involve different legislative frameworks.
In End-of-life Vehicle Directive and Waste Framework Directive some definitions of “re-use are provided”,
however in the Battery Directive is missed as in any other waste legislations.
It is also of utmost importance to clarify the meaning of some terms often used as synonymous like re-use,
second use, repurposing, refurbishment, reconditioning, redesigning etc.; for each of them, specific
regulations should be provided.
Regarding the International Material Data System (the automobile industry's material data system used by
almost all the global OEMs), the information and calculation required for the recycling type approval
process and the corresponding recycling targets should be harmonized with the Battery Directive
requirements.
And referring to the hazardous substances eventually included in the EV battery, they should be
exclusively dealt within the REACH regulation.
Furthermore, the dismantling documentation required by the ELV Directive should include the dismantling
information of the EV battery pack.
In addition to these, it’s useful to highlight that ELV Directive 2000/53/EC regulates all recycling relevant
items around the design/production, use/repair and EoL-phase of vehicles and its components: all
batteries and accumulators used in a vehicle are included.
On another hand the current Battery Directive includes again batteries used in vehicles and it regulates
identical items like recycling quotas, takeback obligations, labeling and the restricted use of hazardous
substances.
9. [30.11.2019] [CarE-Service GA No.: 776851] Page 8
Having this regulated twice does not add value for the environment, but leads to confusion in practice
where still clarity is lacking and harmonization would be important.
2.2 Proposals to remove technical gaps
2.2.1 Requirements for the manufacturing phase
Reusability of batteries, including the possibility of reusing single modules or cells, is more technical and
economical sustainable the easier can be the disassembling of the battery and the testing of its parts and
components.
Regarding design for easy disassembling, testing, repairing, repurposing of EV batteries, the following
technical issues could be highlighted with suggestions on how to address them:
• The assembly of the battery pack should follow a modular approach with a ubiquitous access to all the
modules, cells and electric/electronic components to ensure easy testing and dismantling.
• To allow an easy disassembly of modules and cells it is suggested to use screws or other Plug-&-Play
systems for easy electrical disconnection instead of welding.
• Improved information and coding (e.g. type of screws, HV components, steps to follow in the
dismantling process).
• The supporting systems should not hinder the dismantling operations (e.g. cooling system, low voltage
hardware, cabling and feedthroughs).
• Easiness of dismantling should not hinder safety and functional aspects (e.g. gas tightness, location of
the pressure release valve, location and easy access to the main HV disconnection plug, structural
strength and integrity of the battery pack, efficient thermal management)
• Ensure a clear labelling containing information on chemistries and other relevant features of the pack
(e.g. nominal voltage, capacity, weight). Currently the standard IEC 62902 is limited to mark only the
main battery technologies (e.g. lead-acid, Ni-MH, Li-ion, Li-metal, Ni-Cd); the marking should also
include the Li-ion cathode (e.g. LFP, NxMyCz, NCA) and anode (e.g. Graphite, Si content) chemistries.
• Ensure a BMS partial open access for retrieving of SoH and battery lifetime relevant information
including the usage of the EV battery.
The European Commission promoted an “Ecodesign” preparatory Study for Batteries, which started in
September 2018 (ref: https://ecodesignbatteries.eu/welcome) and expected to be completed by middle
2020, remembering that regulation of electric vehicle batteries under the Ecodesign Directive should not
be applied as the same Ecodesign Directive is not applicable to products that are designed only for use in a
means of transport for persons or goods.
All the proposals hereby suggested above could be included in the aforementioned study.
2.2.2 Requirements for “End of Waste” status and second use
In order to correctly apply the “End of Waste” status on batteries for re-using purposes, safety and
technical standard regulations need to be adopted, and specifically:
10. [30.11.2019] [CarE-Service GA No.: 776851] Page 9
1) Standard procedures for the “state of health” evaluation of EoL batteries, modules and cells to
be re-used in second-life applications.
2) The production of second-life battery packs shall meet the same requirements of the new
industrial batteries, especially in terms of safety.
The only existing standard that specifically cover the second use option is the ANSI/CAN/UL 1974, however
may be resource and time consuming; a faster/more reliable check it may be necessary.
The impedance-based measurements and evaluation methods should be considered (see LibForSecUse
project1
). Once tested, a proper labelling for SoH classification for repurposed battery may be necessary to
be developed, both for getting cheaper transportation costs and for more precise assignment to a specific
second use application.
The regulatory framework defined in the context of Health and Safety at Work and Fire Safety measures in
buildings and industrial activity should allow a safe operation for the dismantling of EV battery packs.
Once the EV battery (either the full pack, modules or cells) is repurposed for a stationary storage second
use application there are some concern regarding safety of the stationary storage systems. The process for
a clear regulatory mandatory framework (e.g. equivalent to the EV safety GTR) for the stationary energy
storage system, especially addressing the lithium-ion technology should be initiated.
2.2.3 Requirements for improved efficiency in the recovery of materials
A circular economy approach to secure access to secondary raw materials through recycling may give
strategic leverage to the future EU cell manufacturing industry.
In this sense, a clear decision of fostering those processes that look for recovering compounds to be used
again in battery manufacturing would be fostered.
A RE measured in terms of recovery rate of the different materials composing the batteries entering the
recycling facility seems more appropriate.
However, in this point it has to be very taken with careful the idea that “the higher RE the best”.
Sometimes, a higher RE in terms of recovered materials does not warranty the best environmental
protection and, it can be at the same time much more dangerous in terms of resources needed for
recycling.
On the other hand, the recycling industry is looking for higher recovery rate only for those materials that
can maximize their benefit (e.g. cobalt, nickel, copper), since usually higher recovery rate come with
higher cost.
Therefore, RE should address mentioned concepts:
• Number of chemical compounds ready to be used in Battery Manufacturing Industry.

https://www.ptb.de/empir2018/libforsecuse/project/overview/ (accessed November 2019)
11. [30.11.2019] [CarE-Service GA No.: 776851] Page10
• Environmental impact of the process in terms of energy consuming, emissions and waste
generation.
• Promote the recovery of many compounds and materials as possible.
• The possibility of reusing directly some compounds of the batteries (e.g. casing, BMS, etc.)
The possibility to include a minimum recycled content in the manufacturing of new cells. However, a big
barrier could be the difficulties in the traceability for battery’s secondary raw materials and the technical
challenge to have an economically viable recycling processes to allow the production of battery grade
secondary raw materials.
3 CONCLUSIONS
The different solutions proposed in this position paper aim to remove legal and technical barriers for the
development of the CarE-Service project, in particular to increase the opportunity to reuse end-of-life
batteries, coming from electrified vehicles, for second life applications.
The illustrated solutions have been defined thinking of their concrete applicability depending, above all, on
the various regulatory revisions in progress, some of which already containing updates and new
regulations in line with these proposals.
Precisely this last aspect gives hope that these proposals can be more easily accepted by the reference
institutional stakeholders to whom this position paper is addressed.
As legislative revisions are imminent and will evolve in the coming months, this is the first version of the
position paper that could potentially be upgradeable until the end of the CarE-Service project.
