How the check works
Six steps, priced per step. Every pack leaves with a grade, a report and a route.
Six steps
From an unknown pack to a documented next use
The first two steps run for every pack. The rest only when they change the decision.
Step 01 · Pack data and photosRegister
Each pack is logged with its identity, origin, available history and photos, so every later result traces back to one physical pack.
You get: A pack record with identity, origin and photos.
Step 02 · Safe to test?Screen
A visual and safety check decides whether the pack can be connected at all.
You get: Safe to test, or quarantine with the reason in writing.
Damaged or critical? It goes to quarantine and gets no further tests.
Step 03 · Health and faultsRead the BMS
Through an OEM-grade pack interface we read state of health, cell voltages, temperatures and stored fault codes.
You get: State of health, cell balance, temperatures and fault codes.
Clear result? The pack is graded straight away.
Step 04 · Only if orderedCycle test
When a buyer needs measured capacity, the pack is charged and discharged under controlled conditions and its delivered energy is recorded.
You get: Measured capacity and delivered energy under recorded conditions.
Only on order, so you never pay for evidence the decision does not need.
Step 05 · Good, medium or badGrade
Every pack receives a grade and a written report with the evidence behind it, its limits and the recommended next use.
You get: Good, medium or bad, with the reasons and the limits of the evidence.
Step 06 · Best next useRoute
We match the pack with the route where it is worth most and safe to go: repair, reuse, second life or certified recycling.
You get: A recommended route and a party that accepts the evidence.
The grade
Good, medium or bad. With the reasons.
One grade per pack, with the reasons in the report.
Usable with limits, repair or a less demanding application.
Typical routeRepair, less demanding second life or parts
Parts recovery or certified recycling, documented.

Pricing
Pay per step. Stop when the answer is clear.
Most packs are graded after the BMS read-out. You only pay for the evidence the decision needs.
- Priced per pack, quoted per batch
- Rerouting within our own network
- Recycling decisions are documented too
Screening
Every packIntake, visual and safety check, short report
BMS read-out
About 8 in 10 packsState of health, cell voltages, temperatures and fault codes
Cycle test
About 1 in 3, on orderMeasured capacity and behaviour under load
Routing fee
Paid by the buyer, only when a pack is placed.
The result
Every pack leaves with a grade and a report.
One report a holder can decide on and a buyer can accept. Structured along EN 18061:2025.
- Pack identity, origin and available history
- Safety observations from screening
- BMS data: state of health, cell balance, faults
- Measured capacity when a cycle test was ordered
- Grade: good, medium or bad, with the reasons
- Recommended route and the limits of the evidence
EN 18061:2025 is the European standard for preparing EV batteries for repair, reuse and repurposing. Our report is a BatteryCentr test record, not a statutory certification or a lifetime guarantee.

Where packs go
Then each pack goes where it is worth most.
The grade decides the route. We match each pack within our own network.
Graded pack
Second-life storage
Stationary energy storage for packs with healthy, balanced cells.
Repair and reuse
Back into a vehicle, as a replacement pack or through resale.
Parts recovery
Dismantling for modules and components that still perform.
Certified recycling
When nothing else is safe or viable, a documented recycling decision.
A pack that cannot be reused still leaves with a documented, compliant decision.
More than a marketplace
We reroute, on request or as your testing partner.
Rerouting on request
Have packs that need a new destination? Ask us, and we reroute them to a suitable party in our network.
As your testing partner
We test every pack, recommend its best next use and forward it to the matching party in our network.
Within our own network
Repairers, second-life buyers, parts recoverers and certified recyclers, matched to each pack's grade.
What we need to quote a batch
- Make, model and chemistry, or a photo of the pack label
- Number of packs and where they are
- Origin: warranty, defect, crash, end of life or surplus
- Known damage, faults or history, if any
- Access to the packs and a safe place to connect them
