Whitepaper: RWTH Aachen Study on Battery Lifetime Optimization

Our joint study by The Mobility House Energy and RWTH Aachen University reveals: Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) only slightly accelerates battery ageing – while offering significant economic benefits.
Why it matters
Battery lifetime is key to the profitability and acceptance of electric
mobility.
Our study dispels a common myth:
Smart charging (V1G)
protects the battery – and unlocks
value potentials of up to €600 per year.
What you’ll learn in the whitepaper
- Comparison of V1G, V2G, and immediate charging (IC)
- Tested battery types: cylindrical, prismatic, pouch
- Environmental and economic benefits of smart energy management
- Vehicle-to-Grid as a cornerstone of a stable, renewable energy system
Our vision
With Vehicle-to-Grid, electric vehicles become part of the
energy system: They can draw and feed back energy — to the home or the
grid.
EVs thus become flexible storage units that stabilize renewable
power supply.
