Jun 2023

See below for our Battery Recycling Infographic, June 2023. This features market developments in the Battery Recycling space, and draws on data from our Battery Recycling Capacity Database and our Battery Recycling Quarterly Outlook .

The Battery Recycling Capacity Database tracks battery recycling annual capacity including plant locations, recycling input and output. Click here to request a demo of our Battery Recycling Capacity Database

The Battery Recycling Quarterly Outlook provides a long-term outlook for global scrap materials available for battery recycling by region, battery chemistry and feedstock covering end-of-life energy stationary storage. Click here to request a demo of our Battery Recycling Quarterly Outlook.

 

Highlights from the latest Battery Recycling Capacity Database:
  • Glencore and Li-Cycle announced plans to jointly establish a hydrometallurgical processing plant with an annual capacity of 50,000 – 70,000 tonnes of black mass in Italy by 2026/2027
  • IS Dongseo’ subsidiary ISBM Solution started the construction of its pre-treatment plant with an annual capacity of over 6,000 tonnes in South Korea. Lithion Technologies, formerly Lithion Recycling, also started the construction of its first commercial plant with an annual capacity of around 13,600 tonnes of recycling input in Canada.
  • SK Ecoplant plans to build a pre-treatment plant in Yancheng, China by the end of 2024. The plant will be operated by TES’ joint venture in China, Z-Cycle.

Global battery recycling pre-treatment capacity remained stable m-o-m at 1.6 million tonnes of recycling inputs per year as of the end of May 2023.

Why do we track the battery recycling market?

The battery recycling market is gaining traction, as EV value chains evolve towards long-term sustainability goals amid future raw material shortages and environmental, social and governance (ESG) concerns. We track the battery recycling market to provide insights into how the market is growing at global, regional and country levels, on the back of EV demand, legislation and battery recycling company strategies. We also track this market to provide insights into current and future battery recycling plant capacity across regions, and provide information on battery recycling inputs and outputs.

As part of the work involved to produce our battery recycling reports, we publish a monthly infographic to offer our followers regular insights into how the battery recycling market is developing on a global scale. We include news highlights as well as insights into global battery recycling pre-treatment capacity and regional battery recycling pre-treatment capacity share.
