M2i Global, Inc. and Volato Group, Inc., together with Regenerate Technology Global, have formed a strategic partnership announced on April 20, 2026, to develop and deploy advanced battery recycling technology in the United States. The new approach is designed to be much more efficient and environmentally friendly, reducing energy use by more than 80% and cutting greenhouse gas emissions by around 90% compared to conventional smelting processes. It can process different types of batteries, including lithium-ion, lead-acid, and alkaline, and enhances recycled “black mass” to produce high-purity materials suitable for new battery manufacturing more quickly and efficiently.
