Unlocking the Potential of Critical Minerals: The Future of EV Battery Recycling in India
As the world pivots towards a sustainable future, the demand for electric vehicles (EVs) is skyrocketing, driven by the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions and transition to cleaner energy sources. In this era of electrified mobility, one thing becomes abundantly clear: the importance of critical minerals like lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite is set to increase dramatically. These minerals are the lifeblood of lithium-ion batteries that power electric vehicles, smartphones, and renewable energy storage systems. The Global Challenge: Demand vs. Supply of Critical Minerals The global rush for EVs has led to an unprecedented surge in the demand for critical minerals. However, mining alone cannot meet the growing needs of industries reliant on these materials. The mining of lithium, cobalt, and other key minerals often comes with severe environmental impacts, including water depletion, pollution, and exploitation of vulnerable populations in mining regions. As electric vehicle ...
