Around 400 decommissioned electric car batteries are now storing solar power at the Rosiwalgasse PV system in the 23rd district. How did the project come to be? How does a “second-life battery storage” system work? What opportunities and challenges does it present?
Wien Energie expert Thomas Schreiner will take on all of these questions and more at an exclusive Walk & Talk at the Rosiwalgasse PV site. Thomas will give us a ca. 1-hour guided tour and explain the ins and outs of this innovative project. Afterwards, there will be plenty of time for your questions, discussion and an exchange of ideas.
📖 Reading tip!
You can find background information on the topic in the Wien Energie blog post on second-life battery storage.
