B2U’s Sierra SEPV facility shows that we don’t have to wait for the next big battery paradigm shift to “up” our renewable energy storage game. The technology is already here, it’s safe, it works well, and it’s relatively inexpensive. As EVs become more popular and age there’s going to be no shortage of supplies.

B2U says its technology allows batteries to be repurposed in a nearly “plug-and-play fashion.” They do not need to be disassembled, and units from multiple manufacturers—B2U has tested batteries from Honda, Nissan, Tesla, GM, and Ford—can be used in one system.
