Lohum

  As the world accelerates towards electrified mobility, LOHUM remains firmly at the forefront—pioneering scalable, responsible, and high-impact solutions in battery value-chain renewal. Our mission: to build a global ecosystem that fosters electric two‑wheelers, three‑wheelers, and energy storage, with uncompromising sustainability. 🔍 Industry Momentum & LOHUM’s Role EV Adoption Boom India alone added over 1.5 million electric two‑ and three‑wheelers in FY2024, representing 28% YoY growth . Battery demand from OEMs is projected to grow at a CAGR of 35% through 2028. Circularity Needs Scale With 20k–30k EV battery packs estimated to reach end‑of‑life each month in India by 2027, the logistics of EPR paperwork for Li‑ion battery recovery become a critical compliance and operational imperative. Emerging Policy Landscape Nations are tightening Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) regulations. LOHUM’s experience in handlin...

As the global shift toward electrification accelerates, a quiet but urgent revolution is unfolding behind the scenes—one that will define how sustainable, secure, and scalable our clean energy future can truly be. At the heart of this revolution lies the question: What happens to electric vehicle batteries at the end of their life on the road? While most eyes are focused on battery production, LOHUM is leading the conversation and innovation around what comes next— rethinking, repurposing, and reintegrating lithium-ion batteries into a closed-loop ecosystem that maximizes value, minimizes environmental impact, and secures supply chains. The Lithium Boom—and Its Shadow From scooters and sedans to trucks, trains, and even airplanes, electrified mobility is no longer a fringe concept; it’s a global imperative. The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates over 240 million electric vehicles (EVs) will be on the road by 2030. That’s more than a tenfold increase compared to 2020. ...

The world is transitioning from fossil fuels to cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable energy solutions. At the heart of this transformation lies the lithium-ion battery—fueling everything from electric scooters and motorcycles to sportscars, trucks, trains, and even aircraft. The momentum toward electrified mobility is not just a trend—it's an evolution. Yet with opportunity comes responsibility. As the use of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) surges globally, so does the challenge of responsibly managing battery end-of-life. According to industry analysts, by 2030, more than 2 million metric tonnes of lithium-ion batteries will retire annually—largely from electric vehicles (EVs). This looming wave of used batteries represents both an environmental risk and a tremendous opportunity. At LOHUM , we are seizing this opportunity head-on—by creating a truly circular and sustainable battery value chain . As one of India’s leading integrated lithium-ion battery lifecycle companies, we’r...

From electric scooters zipping through city streets to powerful three-wheelers transforming last-mile delivery, the rapid electrification of mobility in India and globally is undeniable. At the core of this transition lies the Li-ion battery pack 2 wheeler & 3 wheeler segment—an innovation fueling a cleaner, quieter, and more efficient transportation ecosystem. But with this wave of electric adoption comes a crucial question: What happens when these batteries reach the end of their life? At LOHUM , India’s leading producer of sustainable Li-ion battery raw materials through battery recycling and reuse, we’re answering that question with a powerful vision: a closed-loop future where every battery lives a second life—and beyond. The Coming Wave: Battery Retirements by the Millions Today, electric vehicles (EVs) still account for a small portion of the total vehicle population. But this is changing—fast. By 2030 , analysts estimate that battery retirements could exceed ha...

From powering electric vehicles and mobile devices to enabling large-scale renewable energy storage, lithium-ion batteries have become the unsung hero of our transition to a decarbonized world. But as the world races ahead in electrification, a quieter yet equally urgent transformation is taking place — one that deals with what happens after the battery’s first life. At LOHUM, we are leading India and the world toward a closed-loop battery ecosystem by focusing on lithium battery reusing and recycling , empowering industries with sustainable energy storage solutions that don't compromise the environment. As we accelerate into a future dominated by electric mobility and renewable grids, the importance of an integrated strategy for battery reuse, repurposing, and material recovery cannot be overstated. The Inevitable Wave of Retired Batteries With electric vehicle (EV) adoption on the rise, analysts predict that by 2030, over 2 million metric tonnes of lithium batteries ...
