Surplus batteries are new, unused battery inventory resulting from project cancellations, manufacturing overruns, facility closures, etc. are typically used in cost-effective energy storage solutions while maintaining original quality standards.
Absolutely. We buy lithium-ion batteries, including lithium-ion batteries from stationary energy storage systems (BESS), electric vehicles (EV), and other stationary and mobility battery applications. Our team will assess your batteries and provide a competitive offer.
Bluewater provides comprehensive surplus battery services including assessment, testing, re-certification (where possible), resale and shipping batteries, ensuring maximum value recovery through proper handling and distribution. Bluewater takes care of the logistics of battery shipping, including packaging, labelling, and documentation and keeps the full paper trail.
Bluewater handles lithium-ion batteries from both mobility applications (electric vehicles, marine batteries) and stationary applications (energy storage systems, industrial UPS).
Surplus battery sellers recover maximum value of their assets and enable second-life battery buyers for BESS, marine applications, and mobile equipment to gain access to cost-effective power solutions.
By repurposing and redistributing battery systems for energy storage and backup power, costs for renewable power solutions can be reduced. EV battery packs are disassembled to the cell level for these battery storage solutions.
Using surplus batteries minimizes waste and CO2 emissions by extending battery life. Using these batteries support circularity and creates a more sustainable energy storage ecosystem.
A second life battery is a used battery, often from EVs or BESS, that is repurposed for a new application after its initial use. These batteries are tested and redeployed for energy storage or other uses, extending their lifecycle.
Old EV batteries are evaluated for reuse, repurposing, or recycling. We maximize value by finding second life applications or recycling them through certified battery recycling companies, supporting the circular battery economy.
Second life batteries are commonly used in stationary energy storage systems (BESS) with renewable energy integration, backup power, and electric mobility applications, such as electric scooters, electric bikes, and others. This supports the circular battery economy and reduces waste.
The lifespan of a second life battery depends on its original use and condition, but typically ranges from 5 to 10 years in new applications. We assess each battery to ensure optimal performance and value in its second life.
The evaluation process typically includes comprehensive testing, capacity verification, safety certification, and performance validation to ensure batteries meet quality standards and perform reliably in their intended applications. Bluewater customers get full access to data on battery origin, technical specifications and history.
We accept broken, damaged, or recalled (DDR) batteries for responsible recycling. Our experts will evaluate the condition and provide the best solution for packaging and shipping your battery to recycle.
Yes, Bluewater Battery acquires surplus, used, and end-of-life batteries, including scrap batteries, from a variety of sources. We provide instant offers and ensure responsible recycling or repurpose through our global network.
Yes, we buy and sell surplus solar batteries, including those from battery energy storage systems (BESS). If you have solar batteries to decommission, contact us.
Key features include collecting battery data, decommissioning planning, discharging, disassembling, packaging, labeling, logistics, recycling, and inventory management. A paper trail for its services, including a Certificate of Destruction (COD), is provided.
The excess and surplus batteries that Bluewater resells meet strict quality standards, including compliance with regulatory requirements for handling and transporting.
The best way to sell excess and surplus batteries is to move them to the next application as fast as possible, given the downward trend in new battery prices and rapidly changing technology. Providing supporting documents and photos, full data transparency will also help getting the best price per battery cell.
The best options include direct resale to qualified buyers, and repurposing for different applications, ideally at the battery pack level. The best option for the batteries that have reached the end of their useful life is recycling through qualified and highly scrutinized channels.
Choose a partner based on their capabilities, industry experience, distribution network, and track record in handling surplus battery inventory, ensuring they can maximize value while maintaining compliance.
