TLDR

An adapted LCA is proposed based on the comparison of different scenarios from a life-cycle perspective and confirmed that the environmental benefits of adopting repurposed batteries to increase PV self-consumption in a house occur under specific conditions and that the benefits are more or less considerable depending on the impact category assessed.
