GM/ABB Quote
" The collaboration between ORNL, GM, and ABB has been instrumental in confirming the opportunity to utilize automotive second use batteries in a grid based application. The high quality of the extended ORNL testing gave us a deeper understanding of design, installation, and operation of energy storage devices. The team used the sophisticated lab environment to examine a wide range of performance scenarios not possible at a single production installation site.“ – General Motors
