What is an electric vehicle (EV) battery?
Glossary
EV batteries power electric cars using stored electricity, cutting pollution by replacing fuel. Made mainly of lithium-ion, they can be recycled to reuse materials, boosting sustainability.
What is the lithium recovery target?
Glossary
Lithium recovery targets set goals to reclaim lithium from old batteries, reducing mining harm, boosting recycling, supporting circular economy, and ensuring sustainable, eco-friendly resource use.
What is the cobalt recovery target?
Glossary
Cobalt recovery targets set goals to recycle cobalt from waste, reducing mining harm, securing supply, and promoting a circular economy for cleaner, sustainable technology and resource use.
What is battery recycling efficiency?
Glossary
Battery recycling efficiency means recovering most metals from used batteries, cutting waste and mining. Europe boosts this with rules, tech, and collection to protect the planet and save resources.
What is the battery collection rate?
Glossary
Battery Collection Rate shows how many used batteries are recycled instead of thrown away. Higher rates prevent pollution, save resources, and support a safer, circular economy.
What is an SLI battery (starting, lighting, ignition)?
Glossary
An SLI battery starts vehicles and powers lights using lead-acid chemistry. It’s highly recyclable in Europe, supporting circular economy by recovering materials and reducing pollution.
What is a battery management system (BMS)?
Glossary
A Battery Management System protects and balances battery cells, ensuring safety, longer life, and efficient use. It supports sustainability by reducing waste and enabling clean energy storage.
What is Zaliasis Taskas in Lithuania?
Glossary
