I think the pace of EV batteries being scrapped is currently outpacing using them for something else. The insurance industry is really the ones getting in the way at this point. They aren't going to allow you to put it in your suburban solar powered home for storage without cancelling your home insurance. I know quite a few off-grid people who repurpose them for home storage, so it happens. You have to really know what you're doing, though, as the high voltage is a totally different beast than your standard 12, 24 or 48V battery system so it scares a lot of DIYers off.
