If #battery #recycling is going to be key to the #greentransition, then there is a difficult trick to pull off.

Firms developing capacity now, need to ramp up (and invest) ahead of the surge in recycling that will come when the surge in #electriccars ownership in the last couple of years hits the horizon of disposal... the gap between building effective capacity & the future surge will require 'patient capital' & long-term strategic investments.

At the moment that looks potentially difficult!
