Eramet and Suez to recycle electric vehicle batteries
Eramet, Europe's leading miner and metallurgist, and SUEZ have chosen Dunkirk as the location for their future battery recycling complex
of lithium-ion electric vehicles. This project will enable the strategic metals used in batteries to be recycled in a closed loop, helping to secure the supply of metals needed for Europe's energy transition. The project includes an upstream dismantling plant and a downstream metal extraction plant. The final investment decision for the project is expected to be made by the end of 2023 for the upstream plant, for start-up of the site in 2025, and by the end of 2024 for the downstream plant, for start-up in 2027.
