Abstract
The importance of the used battery field is growing as it is a market that is bound to grow as secondary batteries rapidly emerge, but technology development and industrial revitalization are hindered by issues such as safety management. The study analyzes the characteristics of Japan’s used battery regulations from a life-cycle perspective and seeks to provide implications for establishing similar policies in Korea. The analysis results are as follows. First, Japan is managing battery data by establishing a digital platform considering the entire value chain and life cycle. Second, Japan is strengthening its demonstration project for reuse of used batteries. Third, Japan is promoting technology development with ‘standards’ in mind to secure the battery supply chain. As safety is a key issue in the future transition process from internal combustion engine vehicles to eco-friendly vehicles, research on the topic of safety must continue to be conducted in the future. This study is significant in that it provides implications by reviewing systems and policies that Korea can refer to through an analysis of the case of Japan.
