BATMASS EU Project

⚡️ Electrification isn't just a trend; it's a geopolitical game-changer. A recent report confirms what we're seeing: the drop in oil consumption in Norway 🇳🇴 and China 🇨🇳 proves that electrification is having immediate effects on the economy and geopolitics. This strategic shift presents a powerful opportunity for Europe. ✅ Reduces dependence on fossil fuels and imported raw materials. ✅ Strengthens our technological autonomy. ✅ Protects the environment through a robust circular economy. At #Batmass, we're proud to be at the forefront of this transformation.

🔋🇪🇺 BATMASS at EXPO 2025 Osaka: Showcasing Europe’s Circular Battery Valley On 11 October 2025, the BATMASS Project will take part in a workshop at the Italian Pavilion of EXPO 2025 Osaka, highlighting Europe’s progress in building the first Circular Battery Valley. Organised in collaboration with the Lombardy Region, the session will feature contributions from Politecnico di Milano, AFIL - Associazione Fabbrica Intelligente Lombardia , ERP Italia Servizi, and Università di Pavia The workshop will: ✅ Present the European Circular Battery Valley as a hub integrating second life, recycling, and re-manufacturing solutions. ✅ Showcase the BATMASS Digital Platform as a key enabler of circular business models and regulatory compliance. ✅ Highlight integration with regional initiatives such as EcoCIRC, demonstrating how local pilots contribute to EU-level impact. ✅ Foster dialogue and partnerships across research, industry, and institutions to drive sustainable innovation. Coordinated by Marcello Colledani (Politecnico di Milano), this event will illustrate how interregional cooperation is shaping Europe’s battery value chain — from second life to recycling and re-manufacturing — and how BATMASS is contributing to a more sustainable, competitive, and circular future. 🔗 Learn more about BATMASS: https://lnkd.in/dWHGjiSc #BATMASSProject #Innovation #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #Batteries #EXPO2025

🚗🔋 Europe's automotive industry stands at a pivotal moment. A recent study by Transport & Environment reveals that maintaining the EU's 2035 zero-emission goal, coupled with robust industrial policies, could: Boost car production to 16.8 million units by 2035 Create over 100,000 new jobs in battery manufacturing Expand the charging sector's economic output to €79 billion However, retreating from these targets and lacking a cohesive strategy could result in a €90 billion decline in automotive value-added and the loss of up to 1 million jobs. At Batmass, we are committed to supporting the transition to sustainable mobility. Let's drive the change towards a greener, more resilient automotive future. 🌱 https://lnkd.in/ecw2WtPb #AutomotiveIndustry #ElectricVehicles #SustainableMobility #GreenTransition #Batmass

How can EU regional funding accelerate innovation and competitiveness across Europe? This question was at the core of a high-level dialogue convened by the European Commission in Brussels, where three BATMASS partners – CTA (Corporación Tecnológica de Andalucía), Politecnico di Milano, and Iberian Sustainable Mining Cluster | ISMC – contributed their perspectives. Their insights focused on making funding instruments more effective in supporting sustainable growth, industrial transformation, and business competitiveness. By taking part in these policy dialogues, BATMASS helps ensure that innovation funding translates into real impact for citizens, regions, and industries. 🔗 Read more: https://lnkd.in/gfTmxYza #Innovation #EUfunding #Sustainability #Competitiveness #BATMASSProject

🔋♻️ The global battery recycling market is projected to reach $52 billion by 2045. A growing demand for Li-ion batteries in EVs and energy storage systems, combined with new policies for circularity and sustainability, will drive this exponential growth. Recycling is the final but crucial step in the closed-loop supply chain, ensuring that critical materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel are recovered and reused. At BATMASS, we support this vision of a stronger, more sustainable battery ecosystem in Europe. 💡 👉 Read more: https://lnkd.in/d_6afcbh #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #EV #EnergyStorage

🔋♻️ At BATMASS, we believe recycling and manufacturing must go hand in hand. BASF has started the commercial operation of its Black Mass plant in Schwarzheide, Germany — one of the largest in Europe with a processing capacity of 15,000 tons/year, equivalent to ~40,000 EV batteries. This milestone strengthens Europe’s battery recycling infrastructure, reducing dependency on primary raw materials and advancing the circular economy. 👉 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dAimERKN #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #EV #BATMASS

⚡♻️ Now is the time for bold action in EV battery recycling. LG Energy Solution and Toyota Tsusho announce a new battery recycling joint venture in North Carolina: ✅ Annual capacity: 13,500 tons of scrap ✅ Equivalent to 40,000 EV batteries ✅ Extracting nickel, cobalt, and lithium for reuse ✅ Moving toward a closed-loop system This milestone strengthens the battery supply chain, innovation, and local jobs in North America. 📖 Full story: https://lnkd.in/e2bhf9mV #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #EV #BATMASS

♻️ Circular economy in action! Ace Green Recycling partners with Enecell to recycle 33M+ pounds of lead batteries annually at its Perth facility. This collaboration: 🔋 Expands sustainable recycling capacity 🌱 Reduces cross-border transport of hazardous materials 🚀 Opens long-term opportunities in lithium battery recycling Australia’s leadership in lithium production makes this agreement a powerful step towards a clean-tech future. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eXSV3zi8 #BatteryRecycling #CircularEconomy #EV #BATMASS

Europe's electric future: 5 million EVs by 2027 — but only with the right policies New analysis shows that Europe could produce over 5 million electric vehicles annually by 2027, if 13 key BEV projects go ahead. Yet some are at risk — delayed by regulatory uncertainty and a wavering political climate. Now is the time for bold, coordinated action. A strong EV manufacturing base is crucial not just for decarbonisation, but also for securing local jobs, innovation, and the entire clean-tech supply chain — from raw material recovery to final assembly. ♻️ At BATMASS, we believe recycling and manufacturing must go hand in hand.
