Sustainability and EV Batteries
Whether it’s a gas engine with start/stop technology or a fully electric vehicle, it’s likely that your shop has already worked on some of these, with more likely to roll in over the months or years to come. Service opportunities abound, because the full EV is the only platform that does not utilize an internal combustion engine. And every platform, even the EV, still has a low-voltage system.
In this video, featuring East Penn Batteries and presented the Group Training Academy, you'll learn about steps modern manufacturers take to reduce carbon footprints in parts and vehicle manufacturing as well as the recyclability of components like batteries. From the plastic cases to the lead plates to the battery acid, components used in batteries used in today’s cars are recycled at a rate of 99% – that's incredibly different than the 15% that lithium batteries are recycled. The typical new battery consists of 80% recycled material.
