The invention discloses a method for quickly judging whether a retired battery can be subjected to cascading utilization. The method includes the following steps: step S1,
cycling a battery core to betested at a first multiplying rate for one period at normal temperature, and ensuring that the
discharge capacity is a capacity 1; step S2, after standing at the normal temperature for a period of time,
cycling the battery core at a second multiplying rate for one period, and ensuring that the
discharge capacity is a capacity 2; step S3, after standing at the normal temperature for a period of time,
cycling the battery core at a third multiplying rate for one period, and ensuring that the
discharge capacity is a capacity 3, wherein the second multiplying rate is greater than the third multiplying rate and less than the first multiplying rate; and step S4, if judging that the capacity 1 is less than the capacity 2 and the capacity 2 is less than the capacity 3, determining that the batterycore is suitable for cascading utilization, and otherwise, determining that the battery core is not suitable for cascading utilization. According to the scheme of the invention, whether the retired battery with a
normal appearance can be subjected to cascading utilization is judged through cyclic tests with three different multiplying rates, whether the battery can be subjected to cascading utilization can be quickly and efficiently judged without disassembling the battery, the operation is quick and convenient, the waste can be reduced, and resources can be saved.
