Waymo is transitioning its retired Jaguar I-Pace and Zeekr fleet batteries into grid storage assets via a partnership with B2U, addressing the end-of-life lifecycle for its thousands of deployed vehicles. This move aligns with a broader industry trend toward battery repurposing over recycling, leveraging existing second-life capacity rather than developing new recycling infrastructure. The initiative aims to deploy hundreds of megawatts of storage in California and Texas, though specific technical details regarding capacity utilization and degradation thresholds remain undisclosed.
