Closing the Loop: Battery Recycling Pilot Uses 100% Recycled Critical Minerals to Power New GM EVs
Why now
Thesis: Closed-loop battery recycling supports domestic critical-mineral supply for EVs.
Catalyst to watch: Expansion of recycling capacity or OEM adoption.
Main risk: Pilot scale limits near-term impact.
Why it matters
Closed-loop battery recycling supports domestic critical-mineral supply, easing long-run input constraints for EVs.
