Electrification of the automotive industry is an imperative for achieving the sustainability goals of various multilateral agreements. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) have advantages over internal combustion engines, but lithium-ion batteries, the major component of the BEV powertrain, have significant environmental footprints. Circular economy concepts can mitigate these negative impacts and externalities via closed loop resource systems and second life applications for lifetime extension. The Circular Economy is still in its infancy, but regulation and moves towards decarbonization are strong drivers. This thesis discusses how second life applications associated with the Circular Economy are hindered by technical and economic factors. T...
