Lime, a leading micromobility company, has established a partnership with Redwood Materials to recycle the lithium-ion batteries from its electric bikes and scooters. This collaboration aims to create a more sustainable and circular supply chain by responsibly recycling batteries and reintegrating the extracted materials back into the battery manufacturing process. The partnership aligns with Lime’s sustainability goals, including its commitment to decarbonize its business by 2030. Redwood Materials, founded by former Tesla CTO JB Straubel, specializes in recovering critical minerals such as lithium, cobalt, nickel, and copper. This initiative not only supports Lime’s efforts to reduce emissions but also highlights Redwood’s role in setting industry standards for battery recycling.
