More Sustainable Batteries: Key to Meeting the UN SDGs?

Why Battery Production Meets SDGs: More sustainable battery production can create 10 million new jobs & provide 600 million with access to electricity.

Levers for More Sustainable Batteries: 

• shared use of EVs
• spread of smart charging tech
• better refurbishment & repair
• repurposing & recycling used batteries

Key Takeaway: By implementing all levers, it is possible to achieve a 19-time increase in battery demand which would result in a 45% reduction in greenhouse gas intensity within the battery supply chain.
