A Freiburg-based startup is marketing stationary battery-storage systems built from batteries taken from old electric scooters. The approach repurposes battery units that might otherwise be treated as electronic waste.
According to the available information, the company guarantees the systems’ capacity for ten years without loss. The storage products are positioned as part of the energy transition and as an example of green IT.
By using batteries from electric scooters for stationary storage, the startup gives them a further application after their original use in mobile vehicles. The company’s offering therefore combines battery reuse with energy storage for stationary installations.
