The new year has kicked off on a couple of bright notes for me - one, I have started on a new role at JLR in the Energy Storage team looking at battery remanufacturing and second life scenarios for the batteries that are no longer useful for electric vehicles (for example, grid energy storage) and second, I have been invited by the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG), UK to speak and present my research work done on remanufacturing as part of the overall circular economy agenda at JLR.
