Inputs Material
Main materials used:
> Lithium
> Copper
> Graphite
> Iron
ā Useful Life
> 15 years average lifetime
> No significant volume at the end
of life expected before 2040
considering the installed capacity 1
enel
New Life Cycle
> Current recyclability -50% (steel,
copper fully recycled)
> Estimated recyclability at 2025 ~
70% (improvement in the recycling
of cells material)
> Phosphorus
> Steel
Concrete
Aluminium
KEY INITIATIVES (examples)
New materials and solutions for storage
For example, thermal storage
that use materials (rocks, pipes
and casings) that are to be
considered environmentally
sustainable and not critical.
1.
End of 2021.
Second life solutions for EV
Batteries to be reused as
storage systems (Melilla,
Pioneer) and Battery recycling
plant in Spain (8.000 tons/year)
to recover precious materials as
lithium etc.
