John Kincaide

CEO

After graduating from Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, John has over 40 years of career experience in database application development, Unix software sales, and transportation. He has over 15 years of battery recycling with his other company, WeRecycleBatteries.com.

John started 2ndLife Batteries® in 2017, shortly after completing a telecom critical power battery recycling project in 2016. These batteries were being prematurely recycled. They could last many more years in different applications.

Since 2017, the company has refurbished MWhs of critical power lead-acid batteries for use in various industries, powered by solar and other energy sources. John is a published author of a book, "Unix Computer Telephony - The Complete Guide" 1997, and numerous trade articles. Recently, as co-author "Electric Vehicle Lithium-Ion Battery Life Cycle Management", National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL), 2023, and co-author "Power of a Second Chance", North American Clean Energy. He is currently the co-chair of the NAATBatt Second-Life Committee.
