How can this be done? By encouraging the switch to electric vehicles while optimising and extending the life of batteries. With Mobilize, the objective is to create sustainable ecosystems that combine electric mobility, intelligent recharging and the reuse of batteries <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilize.com\/en\/mobilize-for-companies\/how-used-electric-vehicle-batteries-can-become-a-source-of-green-energy\/\" rel=\"noopener\">to store renewable energy<\/a>. To achieve this, Mobilize is combining its expertise with that of other players such as the start-up Green-Vision, based in Etampes, near Paris, which specialises in the integration of second-life batteries into other vehicles. Yann Lelong, its founder, explains how this partnership works and what it brings to life with the ex-batteries of Renault vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>Ten years ago, Renault Group <a href=\"https:\/\/www.renaultgroup.com\/en\/innovation-2\/electric-vehicle\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">was the first carmaker<\/a> to bet on the circular economy and the electric vehicle.

No more need to plug into an electrical outlet or a noisy, smelly generator to provide non-stop service.<\/p>\n<p>Second life batteries can also be useful for transporting pharmaceutical products, such as vaccines, for which the storage temperature must be absolutely stable and controlled.
