From Atlanta, Georgia
Where a Euler Motors HiLoad EV pack goes from Atlanta, Georgia
- 1
Collected via Detroit, Michigan
Whole packs enter the network at Detroit — Michigan Closed-Loop Plant, 961 km away, where they are weighed and de-energised.
- 2
Module grading at Atlanta, Georgia
All 6 modules are tested for capacity, DC resistance and impedance, then assigned grade A to D.
- 3
Second life at Gothenburg, Sweden
At 80% SOH about 56% of the pack qualifies for reuse and goes to Gothenburg — Nordic Second-Life Campus (7,243 km). Excellent — long calendar life makes LFP the preferred feedstock for stationary BESS repurposing.
- 4
Refined at Reno, Nevada
Remaining modules are shredded to black mass and refined at Reno — Nevada Hydrometallurgy Refinery, 3,203 km away.
| Stage | Facility | Distance |
|---|---|---|
| Nearest intake yard | Detroit — Michigan Closed-Loop Plant | 961 km |
| Nearest second-life works | Gothenburg — Nordic Second-Life Campus | 7,243 km |
| Nearest refinery | Reno — Nevada Hydrometallurgy Refinery | 3,203 km |

Inside the Euler Motors HiLoad EV battery
The Euler Motors HiLoad EV (2022) carries a 12.4 kWh LFP Prismatic (LiFePO4) pack with 6 modules at 96 V, weighing roughly 92 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 646 |
| Year 4 | 92.4% | A — BESS ready | USD 625 |
| Year 6 | 89.3% | A — BESS ready | USD 605 |
| Year 8 | 86.2% | A — BESS ready | USD 575 |
| Year 10 | 83.1% | B — Second life | USD 482 |
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 Euler Motors HiLoad EV pack
12.4 kWh, 6 modules, about 92 kg — this is how the Atlanta, Georgia 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
Atlanta, Georgia site notes
- Fleet depots across the south-east can book consolidated pickups to share transport cost.
- Send serial lists so grading reports map directly to your asset records.
- Damaged or recalled packs must be declared so they ship under the correct DOT provisions.
- Shrink-wrap pallets and label them with the correct UN numbers before collection.
