General Motors has initiated a pilot program focused on closed-loop recycling for electric vehicle batteries, aiming to recover and reuse key materials directly within its own supply chain. The system is designed to minimize waste by extracting valuable components like lithium, nickel, and cobalt from used batteries for reuse in new production. By controlling the entire process—from collection to reprocessing—GM seeks to enhance sustainability while reducing reliance on mining new raw materials. This approach could set a new industry standard for battery lifecycle management.
