Popis: Lithium-ion batteries have revolutionized the industry in terms of mobile power applications. Ranging from cell phones to electric vehicles, Li-ion batteries have been at the heart of the energy transition. In this document the consequences of the latest EU directive concerning batteries is reviewed, the potential for creating a business via the use of 2nd life li-ion batteries is discussed and the viability of characterizing a li-ion battery for use in its second life by measuring its internal resistance is investigated. It has been shown that it is indeed possible to create a business model around the latest EU directive by providing guaranteed energy storage for residents, and that a test bench using low cost materials and an Arduino Nano can be used. The calculated internal resistance of 42mΩ has an acceptable 5% error with the theory, and is likely due to hardware limitations such as no filtering being done within the circuit. Future work includes building upon this thesis to create a commercial product to provide SoH estimations for 2nd life batteries for use within an EU context
