Recyclability is important in the world of EV battery manufacturing. Since the raw materials like lithium and cobalt that make up battery cathodes are expensive, and mining for them is bad for the environment, automakers want to recycle as much as they can. And Porsche just reached a milestone in its efforts to create a fully end-to-end recycling process, so it can use raw materials from its own old batteries to make new ones.
German company Cylib has been working on this project with Porsche, and they've proven that both the technology and their processes work.
