As the transition to a low-carbon, electric transportation system continues, battery recycling and reuse will become an increasingly important strategy for mitigating the potential adverse impacts of producing raw materials, disposing of waste, and securing more reliable, less damaging sources of battery materials.
For better comparability, battery fees to the recycler for taking the batteries are not taken into account, as they might differ between countries.
Still in its infancy, the global battery recycling market is projected to grow roughly seven-fold over the next decade, reaching 24 billion U.S. dollars by 2033. Research lead covering environment and sustainability Discover all statistics and data on Li-ion battery recycling now on statista.com!
The costs are divided by the yearly throughput of battery cells (here 8,000 tonnes) to obtain the recycling cost per kg cells. To obtain the recycling cost per kWh, CR,kg is divided by Ebatt (Equation 7).
More generally, the majority of battery (LG, Samsung) and EV manufacturers (BYD, Toyota) are historically also Asian. A second wave of material for recycling will come from Europe, which is currently significantly ramping up battery production. Lastly, the market in North America should develop along the same lines around 2030.
