More and more companies are exploring how to extract value by repurposing a second-life for those retired but still capable car batteries in less-demanding applications such as stationary energy storage.

Product-wide trends when viewing relative performance of case studies in commercial skin patches.

Consumer batteries such as those used in power tools, mobile phones and laptops are normally recycled/disposed after their service life - that's what we normally refer to as the 'end-of-life' of the batteries. However, retired car batteries that are no longer suitable for electric cars could still hold sufficient capacity for second life applications. The 'end-of-life' of an electric car battery needs to be redefined as they could be further used, for example, for another 10 years or even longer in various post-vehicle applications before they are finally recycled/disposed.

In the past five years or so, perovskite quantum dots have emerged as interesting emissive (PL or EL) nanocrystal materials that could one day rival existing cadmium- or indium-based quantum dots (QDs).
