30,000-Ton Lithium Battery Recycling Project Launched in Hubei Province

Published: May 31, 2025 21:26
【30,000-Ton Lithium Battery Recycling Project Launched in Hubei】An environmental impact assessment for a lithium battery recycling project by a Wuhan-based new energy company entered its second public review phase. With an investment of ¥30 million, the project will utilize existing workshops to build a 30,000-ton/year recycling line. Upon completion, it will process 30,000 tons of lithium batteries annually (including 7,800 tons of non-compliant batteries and 22,200 tons of electrode materials), contributing to resource circularity.

While maintaining a growth structure centered on EVs, South Korea’s battery industry is accelerating its expansion into energy storage systems (ESS) and non-automotive application fields, entering a new phase of transformation. As a result, the basis of competition is shifting from product performance to broader supply chain capabilities. At InterBattery 2026 held in March, major South Korean battery producers showcased a diverse range of products for ESS, AI infrastructure, and industrial applications, underscoring this shift. The industry’s focus is now moving from the single EV market to a broader landscape of energy and industrial applications.
