"solar-powered electricity stations, battery swapping plans, repurposing or recycling batteries as they wear down, and mini-grids (small, localised power generation systems that operate off-grid). The aim is to power large e-bike fleets without interrupting its national electricity distribution."

YES!! "when they're over five years old and they've degraded down to the point where they're only 80% of their original capacity," Whale says. "What we can do is repurpose those batteries and repack them into larger units that can provide energy storage for off-grid solar systems like mini-grids."
