Using used batteries for residential energy storage can effectively reduce carbon emissions and promote a rational energy layout compared to new batteries [47, 48]. Used batteries have great potential to open up new markets and reduce environmental impacts, with secondary battery laddering seen as a long-term strategy to effectively reduce the cost of …
These should have more energy and performance, and be manufactured on a sustainable material basis. They should also be safer and more cost-effective and should already consider end-of-life aspects and recycling in the design. Therefore, it is necessary to accelerate the further development of new and improved battery chemistries and cells.
1) Accelerate new cell designs in terms of the required targets (e.g., cell energy density, cell lifetime) and efficiency (e.g., by ensuring the preservation of sensing and self-healing functionalities of the materials being integrated in future batteries).
Meanwhile, it is evident that new strategies are needed to master the ever-growing complexity in the development of battery systems, and to fast-track the transfer of findings from the laboratory into commercially viable products.
In thermodynamic terms, a brand-new main battery and a charged secondary battery are in an energetically greater condition, implying that the corresponding absolute value of free enthalpy (Gibb’s free energy) is higher [222, 223].
See all authors The development of new batteries has historically been achieved through discovery and development cycles based on the intuition of the researcher, followed by experimental trial and error—often helped along by serendipitous breakthroughs.
All in all, modern battery manufacturing processes should emphasize in pursuing the following goals: – Accelerate the development of new cell designs in terms of performance, efficiency, and sustainability.

Solid-state batteries have a more substantial environmental impact during the production phase, approximately 27 % higher than similar lithium batteries, with NCM outpacing LFP. However, in the usage phase, NCM batteries, due to their unique structure, significantly mitigate energy losses compared to LFP batteries.
