For EVs to deliver their full emission-reducing potential, the battery supply chain must be as clean as possible, and cathode active materials (CAM) are a key part of the sustainability equation. However, at the start of its useful life an EV tends to come with a higher “carbon backpack” because of the battery. How do we do this?
