Recycled battery systems can history up to 10 kilowatt hours kWh of energy by comparison, a typical American home uses between 15 and 20 kWh per day systems can be used for backup power and can reduce costs, for example, being deployed in a primary energy source during peak use hours and rates of energy consumption.
Incidentally, these systems weigh about 2,100 pounds each not all that much lighter than the first model Prius, in fact, and are small enough for about six of them can get in a typical press release parking space Toyota is available below, you can see Otherwise how Toyota Prius parts repurposing old here and here eight recycling.
