Sweden-based startup Northvolt has produced a functioning EV battery using recycled metals. The single battery cell uses a nickel-manganese-cobalt cathode made with metals recovered from waste batteries. In testing, the recycled materials performed on par with newly produced metals, according to Northvolt. The process to recover nickel, manganese, and cobalt involved use of an “aqueous solution” to isolate the metals from other material, under Northvolt’s … Continue reading Sustainable battery supplier Northvolt produces EV battery from recycled metals
