The owners of a new battery recycling facility in the Black Country say they have been left £750,000 out of pocket after being unable to open due to delays in securing permits from the Government.
Fenix Battery Recycling, which is backed by a team of six investors, was initially due to open in late 2020 after directors first announced plans for a vacant industrial site in Willenhall that autumn.
Once operational, the plant will recycle a range of batteries such as those found in mobile phones, laptops, hearing aids and electric vehicles.
