The results show that in all selected categories, the secondary use of EV LIBs has less environmental impact than the use of lead-acid batteries. EVs are being called "zero-emission" vehicles, but there is a new argument for that common belief.
Overall, the analysis points to the complexity and diversity of Li-based batteries' effects on the environment, the economy, and society. Although these batteries may help create a future that is more sustainable, their impact must be carefully considered and managed throughout their life cycle.
For instance, the goal may be to evaluate the environmental, social, and economic impacts of the batteries and identify opportunities for improvement. Alternatively, the goal may include comparing the sustainability performance of various Li-based battery types or rating the sustainability of the entire battery supply chain.
