The BMW Brilliance Automotive joint venture (BBA) has established a closed loop for reuse of the raw materials nickel, lithium and cobalt from high-voltage batteries that are no longer suitable for use in electric vehicles. Already today, the BMW Group uses secondary nickel in the high-voltage batteries of the BMW iX.

The purpose of this topic is to identify proof-of-concept or seedling projects that will complement the research in the Battery500 Program. The objective of the VTO Battery500 Program is to research, develop, and demonstrate lithium battery technologies capable of achieving a cell specific energy of ≥500 Wh/kg while achieving 1,000 cycles.

The newly-developed sixth generation of our lithium-ion cells will bring a huge leap in technology that will increase energy density by more than 20 percent, improve charging speed by up to 30 percent and enhance range by up to 30 percent. We are also reducing CO 2 emissions from cell production by up to 60 percent.

If EVs are truly to provide a greener alternative to legacy vehicles, then mining and industrial processes need to be held to the strictest environmental standards, and supply chains need to be kept short to minimize transport emissions. We are assessing those players.
