Total results returned: 2
The Methods, Tools & Processes for Circular Economy section provides a comprehensive set of resources aimed at fostering sustainability in the electric vehicle (EV) industry. This page features reports, case studies, and research papers focused on circular economy principles, including resource efficiency, waste reduction, recycling, and product life extension. Explore practical tools and strategies that help integrate these principles into EV design and production, contributing to a more sustainable, eco-friendly automotive ecosystem.
Business Models and Ecosystems in the Circular Economy Using the Example of Battery Second Use Storage Systems
This paper explores the secondary use of batteries in stationary energy storage systems (B2U storage systems) proposed for the circularity of electromobility. To implement such systems, a circular business model and a cross-industry ecosystem are required. However, the meaning, scope, and structure of these concepts have received little research to date. To close this gap, a theoretical construct for a circular business model based on the theory of business model, sustainability, circular economy, and ecosystem must be developed.

RHODaS Webinar 4: Environmental, Criticality & Circularity Assessment of EV Materials & Components
The RHODaS Webinar Series presents four interconnected sessions exploring the latest European research on next-generation electric powertrain technologies. Hosted by the RHODaS consortium under the Horizon Europe framework, funded by the European Commission and as part of the E-VOLVE Cluster, the webinar series will feature insights from the RHODaS, SCAPE, @MaximaHEU and EM-TECH projects, bringing together leading experts in power electronics, digital systems, and sustainability. Each webinar focuses on a specific technological domain critical to the electrification of transport — from component design and thermal management to digital intelligence and circularity. Together, they illustrate how European research is transforming electric mobility through efficiency, reliability, and environmental responsibility.
This final session explores sustainability and resource efficiency in electric powertrains. Researchers from RHODaS, EM-TECH, SCAPE, and MAXIMA will present integrated approaches to life-cycle assessment, circularity, and material criticality, highlighting pathways toward a more sustainable and resilient e-mobility value chain.
