A comparison chart of two electric vehicle battery recycling processes, showing steps like EV battery extraction, disassembly, sorting and screening, reassembly, and deployment.

How We Give an EV Battery a Second-life?

Classic Solution

The conventional second-life battery process involves multiple lengthy steps: battery extraction, disassembly, sorting, screening, reassembly, and finally, deployment.
This approach is time-consuming, expensive, and introduces safety risks.

WPU Solution

In contrast, our method reuses retired EV batteries directly - without any dismantling.
This groundbreaking concept is what we call Whole Pack Utilization (WPU) technology.

The World’s Leading Second-life Technology

Retired

EV batteries are typically retired and replaced after 8–10 years of vehicle use — especially once their State of Health (SOH) falls below 80%.

Reused

CycleWatt reuses retired EV batteries directly — without any dismantling — to build second-life Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). Our technology extends the life of these batteries by an additional 8–10 years.
