EV Recycling & End-of-Life Vehicle (ELV) Scrappage Ecosystems
As India’s EV fleet scales, the end-of-life management challenge is coming into sharper focus. India’s Vehicle Scrappage Policy (2021) and the anticipated Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework for EV batteries will create a mandatory, large-scale recycling market. The critical mineral recovery opportunity — lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese — aligns directly with India’s resource security objectives.
What Numbro Covers:
- ELV volume forecasting: battery pack retirements by chemistry type through 2035
- Recycling technology landscape: hydrometallurgy, pyrometallurgy, direct recycling — economics and recovery rates
- Regulatory deep-dive: EPR framework development, CPCB battery waste rules, state-level scrappage incentives
- Player mapping: Attero Recycling, Lohum Cleantech, Metastable Materials, Battery Smart recycling arm
- Critical mineral value chain: black mass processing, precursor manufacturing, cathode active material recovery
Essential for material recovery companies, battery manufacturers building circular supply chains, ESG-focused investors, and policy bodies.
