Automotive group Mercedes-Benz has inaugurated what it claimed is the first integrated hydrometallurgical facility in Europe for battery recycling in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
Mercedes-Benz Energy, part of the large automotive OEM, has expanded its range of second life energy storage partnerships into India through a 50MWh per annum module supply deal with local firm Lohum.
Nissan, Renault and Mercedes-Benz are at the forefront of providing EV batteries for companies developing second life battery energy storage systems (BESS), but the market for such batteries is still thinly-traded.
