Novocycle Technologies

🔍 HOW EU FUNDING FLOWS TO NOVOCYCLE Ever wonder how EU funding actually reaches innovative projects on the ground? Here’s how it works for our JTF-105 project in Geleen 👇 The Just Transition Fund (JTF) was set up by the EU to support regions moving away from carbon-intensive industries. One of those regions is Zuid-Limburg. Here’s how the money flows: The European Union → Province of Limburg → Novocycle. Limburg receives the JTF budget from the EU, then allocates it to regional projects through competitive calls. Novocycle applied and was awarded funding for a pilot plant that upgrades lithium-ion battery recycling in a radically more circular way. This grant isn’t just about building tech—it’s about building a future. • Novocycle’s process recycles over 96% of battery materials—up from 70% in current tech.  • It slashes CO₂ emissions by up to 67% compared to virgin battery production.  • The project will create at least 18 new jobs and establish a long-term R&D hub at Brightlands Chemelot Campus.  • Our pilot is laying the groundwork for two commercial recycling facilities in South Limburg. Understanding how these funding streams work matters. It shows how the EU supports local innovation that has global impact—and how public investment can drive real change at the community level. Circularity doesn’t just happen. It’s built—step by step, system by system. 

⚡ Renault just made a bold EV move! The French automaker is teaming up with Envision AESC to streamline battery production and scale up its EV rollout. This could mean cheaper EVs, a stronger European supply chain, and faster innovation. With Europe racing toward electrification, will other automakers follow suit and secure local battery partnerships? Or is Renault taking the lead in a new era of EV manufacturing?

🚫 Shredding batteries isn’t the solution… Most recyclers recover only 26% of valuable materials—and waste energy doing it. Novocycle’s clean, dry method recovers up to 96% without toxic chemicals or “black mass.” Curious how we’re flipping the industry standard? What part of battery recycling do you wish more people understood? 👇 

🔋 Black mass exports are in trouble—what’s next? The EU just reclassified black mass and other battery waste as hazardous, making cross-border shipments much harder. Recyclers relying on exports could struggle, but those with advanced material recovery (like Novocycle!) have a massive advantage. What does this mean for the battery industry?

An EV battery takes 250 tons of mining… is that really sustainable? EVs are called zero-emission cars, but producing their batteries is anything but. It takes 7 years for an EV to offset the CO₂ from its manufacturing—and by then, the battery is almost due for replacement. There’s a better way. Battery recycling can recover 90%+ of materials, reducing the need for new mining and cutting emissions. If we want truly green transportation, we need to close the loop. What do you think—should EV makers focus more on mining alternatives or battery recycling? 👇 Join the conversation! #EVs #Sustainability #BatteryRecycling #GreenTech #ClimateAction

Your Electric Vehicle runs on lithium—but do you know where it comes from? Most of the world’s lithium is mined in two ways: breaking apart hard rock or evaporating brine from salt flats. Both methods have major environmental trade-offs, from high carbon emissions to water depletion. With demand for lithium skyrocketing, the question is: How do we balance sustainability with the need for clean energy? Read the full article to explore the challenges and future of lithium mining. 👇 #Sustainability #Lithium #EVBatteries 

Solid-state batteries could change everything—are we ready? ⚡🔋 Imagine an EV that charges in minutes or a smartphone battery that lasts for days.
