RECOVAS — A new circular end-of-life supply chain for the electric vehicle industry

There are over 164,000 pure electric vehicles on Britain's roads. RECOVAS aims to provide a standardised and reliable route for recycling and repurposing the lithium-ion batteries in these vehicles.

As part of the project, leading automotive manufacturers have agreed to share more information about the design and construction of their batteries, allowing the consortium to more effectively and efficiently repurpose or recycle them.
