A few weeks ago, a battery recycling deal was announced for a 640MWh BESS project in Australia, but the project isn’t even built yet and the cells have 25-year warranties – we caught up with the company recycling the batteries to hear more.

Green Li-ion, a Singapore-headquartered startup, has put into operation what it claims is the first recycling facility in North America to turn black mass directly into precursor cathode active material (pCAM).

Big investments are being made into the battery recycling sector in Europe as the continent looks to increase the domestic supply of critical materials for its lithium-ion gigafactory projects.

We hear from Aqua Metals, a company with a novel lithium-ion battery recycling technology it claims is cheaper and more sustainable to commercialise than conventional methods, discussing its tech, the energy storage market and fluctuating metals prices.

Li-Cycle is exploring “strategic alternatives” after pausing work on its main recycling facility in New York following soaring project costs while industry peer AquaMetals claims to Energy-Storage.news that its facility is 60% cheaper to build.

Li-Cycle, a North America-based company focused on lithium-ion battery recycling, has opened a black mass production facility in Germany.

The battery manager for Sweden-based Stena Recycling Group discussed the firm’s approach to the battery market and reusing batteries for second life in an exclusive interview with Energy-Storage.news.

Lithium-ion battery recycling firm Li-Cycle saw its overall revenues fall 32% in its fourth quarter, due to two separate factors related to a fall in metals prices.

Li-Cycle has seen its revenues rise although the cost of expansion to meet expected future demand remains high.

LG Chem and LG Energy Solution have agreed to make a US$50 million investment into lithium-ion battery resource recovery and recycling company Li-Cycle.
