The company is building a new plant in Nevada, and aims to be processing 10,000 tons of black mass (equivalent to about 150,000 EV battery packs) annually by 2025. Other batteries are coming from battery energy storage systems. One stat for you: something like 147 typical iPhone batteries yield enough cobalt for an entire EV.

Founded in 1989, and headquartered in Austin, Texas, Valence has facilities in Nevada, China and Northern Ireland. Battery chemistry is frequently a trade-off in power, the ability to accelerate, and energy storage or range. By comparison, nickel-based Li-ion systems have a cathode voltage of 3.8V.
