New study on the combined assessment of costs and environmental impacts along the battery value chain

We would like to draw your attention to a paper recently published in the journal Applied Energy by our Institute in collaboration with the Helmholtz Institute Münster. The topic of the paper is the combined assessment of costs and environmental impacts along the value chain from material synthesis to recycling of lithium-ion batteries. We believe that this publication will be of interest to research and industry in the context of forthcoming EU legislation on the CO2 footprint and recycling rate of lithium-ion batteries.
