Back to Battery specializes in advanced recycling technologies for various battery chemistries including pouch cells, hard cells, and small modules. Their process generates no direct CO₂ or NOx emissions and features internal recycling of water and reactants, creating a closed-loop system. The technology produces high-quality materials suitable for reuse in new lithium-ion batteries, supporting a sustainable and resilient battery supply chain compliant with European Battery Regulation.
The company focuses on recycling processes rather than specific product models. Their technology processes a wide range of lithium-ion battery types to recover high-quality raw materials for reuse in battery production.
In the past year, Back to Battery has been expanding its capabilities and establishing partnerships within the EV and renewable energy sectors to develop scalable battery recycling solutions. Specific projects are not publicly detailed.
Back to Battery has secured a pre-seed investment led by Graduate Entrepreneur, a Dutch venture fund affiliated with Erasmus University Rotterdam, Erasmus MC and Delft University of Technology. The funding will support the scaling of its proprietary lithium-ion battery recycling technology and the establishment of a full-scale facility by 2027. The specific investment amount has not been publicly disclosed. No additional investors have been announced.
