Webinar: More, bigger, heavier – why electrification is changing the reality of batteries and your producer responsibility

Batteries are fast becoming as important to the global economy as oil once was. Prices have fallen by 99 % since 1991, energy density has more than tripled, and electric vehicles and energy storage are driving explosive growth. The result is more batteries, and bigger and heavier ones. In this webinar, Batteriretur looks at the most important trends in the battery market. We cover how energy consumption is developing, how battery technology evolved from lead-acid to lithium-ion and sodium-ion, and the geopolitics behind it, including China’s 85 % share of the global battery value chain. Along the way, we’ll ask for your input on what these trends mean for producer responsibility. The webinar does not focus on critical substances.
