Recell hit a major production milestone today - something that speaks directly to our mission and we're REALLY proud to be part of.
Of the more than 1,000 modules and half a million cells that @Recell has processed this past year, we've been able to get more than 99.97% of them back into service - either for use in our remanufactured battery packs or repurposed for secondary use such as backup power and solar.
Out of more than half a million cells, less than 0.03% - a mere 150 cells shown in the infographic below - ended up actually being disposed of or recycled this past year. That's a far cry from the image most people have of big cumbersome battery packs being carted off to landfills once they're done in.
Of course it's not just @Recell doing this - Tesla, @wk057 and others have similar remanufacturing and secondary use efforts in place as well.
That's actually an incredible sustainability story, across the board. One that everyone here plays a part in and should rightly be proud of!
