The goal for the German group is to develop an industrial, automated, scalable, and non-destructive recycling concept for electric axles. Depending on the condition of the electric axle drive components, the electric axle drive can be dismantled only into its main units (typically: motor, inverter, ...

Thanks to a multi-million-euro investment, CEVA is targeting the gradual expansion of Battery Logistics Centers dedicated to EV batteries across 10 European countries by 2027. An initial trial program aimed at validating the Battery Logistics Center concept was started in 2022 and remains in operati...

Compared to new production, reusing individual components saves around one third of CO₂e emissions. Batteries that cannot be refurbished are immediately recycled. In technical terms, each battery is equipped with the current software version and undergoes rigorous functional and leak tests. The Merc...

The agreement stipulates that scale-up from Aachen cylib will collect and recycle used batteries and production waste from battery production at European sites of Webasto. The latter has been producing battery systems for cars and commercial vehicles, among other things, since 2019.

CATL will collaborate with the foundation to identify the circular economy opportunity for the entire battery value chain, and build an ecosystem of cross-industrial partners to develop and implement a blueprint for battery circularity. 

The project will be held in close cooperation with Connexx Systems, a Japanese company specializing in storage battery systems. The target is building an EV charger capable to reduce the load on the existing power grid when it comes to charging electric vehicles. The expansion of charging infrastruc...
