Test assumptions
Expose where a model holds and where it needs refinement.
Infrastructure Pilots
BCP coordinates industry knowledge, shared frameworks and real-world validation to create reusable infrastructure assets.
Why Infrastructure Pilots Matter
A framework becomes useful infrastructure only when people can apply it across real conditions, roles and organisational boundaries.
Expose where a model holds and where it needs refinement.
Let participants examine evidence and decisions together.
Convert local learning into assets the wider system can use.
From Knowledge to Implementation
BCP pilots create a structured feedback loop between research, frameworks, operational practice and infrastructure design.
The BCP Pilot Model
BCP coordinates the pathway and evidence. Participating organisations contribute the operational, technical and contextual expertise.
Create a shared view of the system challenge, operating context and outcomes that require validation.
Coordinate the organisations, practitioners and evidence holders needed to examine the challenge as one system.
Apply the proposed framework in a controlled real-world setting and observe how it performs across organisational boundaries.
Document decisions, gaps, outcomes and implementation learning with clear provenance and review points.
Translate validated learning into practical assets that can be reviewed, adopted, improved and scaled.
Pilot Focus Areas
Status labels describe the current planning position only. They do not represent a launch, contract, completion or confirmed external participation.
Coordinated decision pathways for damaged or high-risk EV batteries across responders, assessors, transporters and recovery providers.
Consistent approaches for assessing battery condition, risk, next-use potential and recovery pathways.
Shared operational guidance for safe movement, temporary custody and storage across different battery conditions.
Information models and handover practices that maintain battery identity, status and accountability across the lifecycle.
Role-based learning pathways that help organisations make consistent, evidence-led battery decisions.
Validated pathways that connect assessment decisions with reuse, repurposing and responsible materials recovery.
What Each Pilot Produces
Outputs depend on the validated problem, evidence and intended users. Not every pilot will produce every asset type.
Current and Future Pilots
This portfolio is intentionally conservative and will be updated only as scope, partners and validation pathways are confirmed.
An infrastructure pilot pathway being developed around coordinated response, assessment, custody and recovery decisions.
Scope and participation subject to confirmationA planned validation pathway connecting assessment practice with decision frameworks and workforce capability.
Scope and participation subject to confirmationA future opportunity to validate interoperable information and custody signals across downstream pathways.
Scope and participation subject to confirmationEcosystem Collaboration Model
BCP creates a neutral structure for relevant stakeholders to define the problem, contribute evidence, test shared frameworks and review what should become reusable infrastructure.
Coordinate participation, validation, evidence capture and infrastructure translation—not act as a consulting firm or project contractor.
Build Infrastructure Through Evidence
BCP welcomes industry problems, operational knowledge, research and participation that can strengthen Australia's battery circularity infrastructure.
