According to foreign media reports, General Motors and LG Energy Solution's joint venture Ultium Cells has partnered with Canadian company Li-Cycle to recycle 100% of the material waste generated in battery cell production.
Ultium Cells stated that this collaboration will allow it to recycle materials such as cobalt, nickel, lithium, graphite, copper, manganese, and aluminum, with 95% of the materials usable for battery production in related industries. The two parties will begin battery recycling this year.
Ken Morris, Vice President of Electric and Autonomous Vehicles at General Motors, stated: "General Motors' zero-waste initiative aims to divert over 90% of its manufacturing waste from landfills and incinerators globally by 2025. Currently, we will work closely with Ultium Cells and Li-Cycle to help the industry better utilize these materials."
General Motors' next-generation Ultium batteries will feature a modular design, making them easier to reuse and recycle. These batteries are expected to power General Motors' electric vehicles starting this fall.
Thomas Gallagher, Chief Operating Officer of Ultium Cells, stated: "Ultium Cells is committed to producing more products with less waste and energy consumption, which is a key step in improving the sustainability of components and manufacturing processes."
Ultium Cells also stated that compared to traditional processes, the hydrometallurgical recycling process used for Ultium batteries can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30%.
Since 2013, General Motors has recycled or reused all battery packs received from customers, including warranty replacements. Ultium Cells stated that currently, most of the battery packs used in General Motors repairs are refurbished.
General Motors also stated in its 2020 sustainability report that it has used scrapped EV batteries in fixed backup power systems. At the Milford Proving Ground in Michigan, General Motors uses recyclable batteries to balance grid usage, striving for a net energy consumption of zero for the Milford office building.
The report also mentioned that General Motors has collaborated with the U.S. Department of Energy and the U.S. Advanced Battery Consortium to promote the recycling of lithium-ion batteries and to study recycled materials as alternative raw materials.
