Glovis Obtains a Patent for a Transport Facility for
Used Electric Vehicle Batteries for the First Time in Korea

Hyundai Glovis has obtained a patent for a “platform container” that transports used electric vehicle batteries that are in different forms for each vehicle type in one container. This container has a changeable rail-type structure by which the size of the container can be adjusted, enabling the loading of batteries from different vehicles in various sizes. Accordingly, it is expected to act as the first “platform” for used electric vehicle batteries. In addition, it can load in multiple levels, increasing the number of batteries that can be loaded in an 11-ton freight truck from a maximum of five up to 17, more than tripling the efficiency. As the batteries can be loaded straight onto the container, it enables overseas export through marine transport. It is also effective in preventing short circuits because it uses insulating material, and is safe thanks to the use of a special fixing device. Hyundai Glovis expects to become a leader in the used electric vehicle battery transport market through the acquisition of this patent. The Korea Energy Economics Institute estimates the number of used batteries in Korea to increase significantly from approximately 4,700 in 2020 to 80,000 in 2030. With the growth of the electric vehicle market, the demand for reverse logistics for used batteries is expected to greatly increase, and business in this field is also expected to grow.
