Our latest research published: LFP turns positive around 2037, 2026 cohorts produce net positive lifetime value — and today's contracts are pricing neither. linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

Battery recycling will be cheaper and more profitable. And so will reuse and repurposing. Join us in London to discover why and discuss what it means for the market. linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

What will your batteries be worth at end of life? Workshop: The Battery Value Equation London, 2 June circularenergystorage.com/battery-value-…

Take-aways from Interbattery in South Korea🇰🇷🔋: linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

Looking forward to speaking at @_InterBattery in Seoul next week 🇰🇷. Will present CES data on the real lifecycle of batteries🔋♻️– and what it means for carbon footprint, residual value, and the future supply of recycled materials. Reach out if attending and would like to meet.

@Karl77573036 Well, that’s kind of what CATL is doing with their choco battery. With proprietary tech.

@hanseric With improve reliabilities and expectation for 1-2 million km batteries, cheap EVs offers will expand massively but will need standardisation for "commodity" battery pack

Prices of used EV batteries are falling. That's good for recyclers. But also for repurposing businesses. But also for EV exporters... 🧀🐀🐈🐕 circularenergystorage.com/post/the-real-…

@electricfelix @ChanNgu18502948 When it comes to hydrometallurgical treatment and production of salts the pipeline is not long and nothing is fully financed. Not so much of a problem as here is no pCAM production. Pre-processing is not so much of a problem as we have more than what we need.

@ChanNgu18502948 @hanseric knows every single 1 I'm sure

"CATL, world’s largest battery producer, is at the forefront of a multi-billion dollar wave of overseas manufacturing expansion by China’s clean technology firms, w/ a facility in Germany in operation and other sites planned in locations including Hungary & Indonesia" #battchat

Why there is no tsunami of waste EV batteries linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

@electricfelix Dreaming us back to the days when PV modules cost $4/W. Those were the days.

@hanseric Unfortunately realism seems anything but our specialty these days

Again, the Commission wants it all: Clean energy A competitive clean tech industry Made in Europe By Europeans That’s at least two objectives too many to be realistic in a globalised world. ec.europa.eu/commission/p...

The EU want to have its cake and eat it. That may kill the automotive industry. My two Euro cents in Stockholm. linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

Invest in battery recycling. As easy as investing in a coffee shop: linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

Before we improve EV sales we need to improve EV ownership. linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

The story about an adorable EV. And about its lifecycle. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

Residual values for EVs continue to slide. And here's the thing. Next year's EV stock coming off 3-years lease contracts in Europe will be around 28% higher. Will the adoption rate among private buyers keep up with that? autovista24.autovistagroup.com/news/mmu-bev-r…

Speaking about low residual values again. Because somebody needs to. Not ”despite” we like EVs, but because we want the market to succeed. And it’s not working. linkedin.com/posts/hanseric…

The EV battery recycling challenge. To survive until it's meaningful. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
