📋 Tender Overview
The ReLieVe (Recycling of Li-ion Batteries for electric Vehicles) project aims to create an innovative end-to-end European-based integrated solution for the closed loop recycling of 50 000 tons of end-of-life lithium-ion batteries and production waste from battery manufacturing processes per year. The key project innovations consist in combining low impact mechanical pretreatment with innovative hydrometallurgical refining to produce new battery grade salts. From 2027, when it is scheduled to become operational, the ReLieVe plant will produce high quality recycled metal salts for the production of new batteries in Europe, which is expected to achieve 100% relative greenhouse gas emission avoidance compared to the reference scenario.
