• Second life battery refers to an electric vehicle''s retired battery after it reaches 80-70% state of health. • State of health is a quality indicator of the battery. It can be estimated based on capacity fade and/or resistance growth. • The capacity that remains for the second-life battery can be used in energy storage systems for grid
