If current projections are met, hundreds of millions of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) will be on the road by 2040. To mitigate the environmental damage producing and disposing of so many battery packs would cause, energy efficient and cost effective means of battery reuse and recycling must be developed.
Recycling options exist around various battery types, from lead-acid to lithium-ion. Although lead-acid batteries are 99% recyclable, lithium-ion batteries are by a wide margin the most commonly used in battery energy storage projects.However, Lithium-ion batteries cannot last too long, which poses a problem in their functional capabilities.
Six projects were selected to do this through approaches including battery collection drop-off programs and deploying battery storage and sorting facilities, representing $7.2 million in funding.
Part of the association''s Corporate Responsibility Initiative (CRI), a taskforce made up of energy storage company representatives issued the guidelines just before the end of August. The document encourages the consideration of the costs and options for recycling and end-of-life management at the very beginning of project development.
A global rush into battery recycling is good news for car makers worried about future raw material supplies. But the wave of new factories poses a big risk for the recycling industry itself: there''s nowhere near enough scrap yet to feed them all. Big-name car manufacturers, specialist recycling companies and even miner Glencore are all
