Revive & Recharge: The Second-Life EV Battery Challenge
How might we repurpose end-of-life EV lithium-ion batteries into grid connected energy storage (BESS) for Qatar’s growing renewable energy supply?
Revolutionizing Renewable Power Storage through Repurposing EV Batteries for Future Energy Resurgence
KAHRAMAA is calling on innovators to develop a Battery Energy Storage Solution (BESS) that translates second-life battery potential into a functional engineering design. This initiative seeks to solve dual challenges by creating a circular economy for batteries while stabilizing the national grid.
