circular economy

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...

The recycling plant in Kuppenheim, southern Germany, aims to create a genuine circular economy. According to the German group, valuable and scarce raw materials such as lithium, nickel and cobalt can be recovered – in a way which is suitable for use in new batteries for future all-electric Mercedes-...
