Abstract
The usage of electric vehicles (EVs) is currently experiencing an upward trend in most countries around the world. A similar demand for EVs was also detected in Malaysia, as shown by the surge in the number of EV sales over the past few years. However, the growing number of EVs raises a new environmental concern since it can lead to a potential risk of pollution in the country. This problem is caused by a lack of proper management for the main component in the EV, such as the battery, which has not been properly addressed yet, especially when it reaches the end-of-life phase. This study is prepared with the objective to present a methodology proposed for the study to investigate the cost comparison between the exclusivity of end-of-life (EOL) batteries and management strategies for electric vehicles (EVs) in Malaysia. The methodology of the study is designed with a qualitative research method that encompasses a semi-structured interview approach to interview respondents with established experience, knowledge or skills in electric vehicles (EVs). The study will identify suitable strategies that can be recommended to overcome the issues of end-of-life (EOL) batteries of electric vehicles (EVs), which could be served as bases for decision-makers to ensure the strategies chosen are relatively low cost and, at the same time, promote broader usage and ownership cost optimisation of electric vehicles in the future.
