Where a Altigreen neEV Tez pack goes from Tuas, Singapore
- 1
Collected via Ulsan, South Korea
Whole packs enter the network at Ulsan — Korea Recovery Campus, 4,637 km away, where they are weighed and de-energised.
- 2
Module grading at Tuas, Singapore
All 6 modules are tested for capacity, DC resistance and impedance, then assigned grade A to D.
- 3
Second life at Zwickau, Saxony
At 80% SOH about 56% of the pack qualifies for reuse and goes to Zwickau — Saxony Second-Life Works (9,976 km). Excellent — long calendar life makes LFP the preferred feedstock for stationary BESS repurposing.
- 4
Refined at Ningde, Fujian
Remaining modules are shredded to black mass and refined at Ningde — Fujian Refining Base, 3,291 km away.

Inside the Altigreen neEV Tez battery
The Altigreen neEV Tez (2023) carries a 11 kWh LFP Prismatic (LiFePO4) pack with 6 modules at 96 V, weighing roughly 81 kg. Cobalt-free prismatic chemistry dominant in Indian passenger EVs and commercial fleets. Low black mass value, exceptional second-life economics.
| Service year | SOH | Grade | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Year 2 | 95.5% | A — BESS ready | USD 573 |
| Year 4 | 92.4% | A — BESS ready | USD 555 |
| Year 6 | 89.3% | A — BESS ready | USD 537 |
| Year 8 | 86.2% | A — BESS ready | USD 510 |
| Year 10 | 83.1% | B — Second life | USD 428 |
What the chemistry means here
How it ages
LFP fades slowly and fairly linearly for most of its life. Capacity loss is driven mainly by lithium inventory being locked up in the SEI layer on the graphite anode, while the cathode structure stays largely intact.
Thermal behaviour
LFP's olivine cathode holds its oxygen tightly, so thermal runaway typically starts at higher temperatures than nickel-rich cells and releases noticeably less heat. It is not inert: a failing LFP cell still vents flammable electrolyte vapour and hydrogen, and large prismatic cans store a lot of energy in one place.
Handling LFP Prismatic
Collecting a Altigreen neEV Tez pack
11 kWh, 6 modules, about 81 kg — this is how the Tuas, Singapore team plans the job.
Removal
Packs are removed from the under-seat or rear bay; high-cycle fleet packs are checked for water ingress first.
Packaging
Packs are palletised in small groups inside UN-rated boxes, with dividers between units.
Consolidation
Fleet depots and dealer service points are scheduled as recurring milk runs rather than one-off pickups.
Before the truck arrives
- Check for corrosion and water ingress in the pack bay
- Flag any aftermarket or repaired packs on the manifest
- Tape terminals and remove quick-connect plugs
- Group packs by chemistry before collection
Tuas, Singapore site notes
- Regional shipments require import permits.
- Provide serial lists.
- Damaged packs need declaration.
- Fleet pickups can be arranged.
