Technical FAQs 4

What are the environmental impacts of lithium ion battery recycling?

(1) Higher impacts are dominated by increasing battery lifetime and increasing metal use. (2) GHG intensity of LIB recycling is 16–32 kgCO2 e /kWh of battery capacity recycled. (1) Secondary use of LIBs in residential applications are an opportunity to further reduce the environmental impacts of LIBs due to load shifting.

What are the environmental impacts of battery storage systems?

Secondly, environmental impacts arise throughout the lifecycle of battery storage systems, from raw material extraction to end-of-life disposal. Key issues include resource depletion, greenhouse gas emissions, and pollution from mining activities.

What is a lithium ion battery?

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are found in all aspects of our lives – from small portable electronic devices through electric vehicles (EVs) to battery energy storage systems (BESS).

What are the life cycle impacts of lithium ion batteries?

Life cycle impacts are dominated by the operation phase. Battery impacts are driven by metal supply (copper and aluminum) and process energy. Lithium components do not contribute significantly to ADP impacts. Higher impacts are associated with cathodes containing cobalt and nickel (NMC) compared to LMO and LFP.
