Redwood Materials to build next Li-ion battery recycling and remanufacturing center in South Carolina

Green Car Congress

A corridor from Michigan to Georgia is becoming known as the “Battery Belt” and is where hundreds of GWh a year of battery cell production capacity will be built and start operating between now and 2030. As a result, US battery manufacturers will spend more than $150 billion overseas on these components by 2030, Redwood says.
