New digital marketplace offers easier end-of-life battery management

ReBattery is the world's first digital marketplace connecting companies directly with certified battery recyclers and repurposers through a single, global network. Making end-of-life battery management accessible and affordable for every business, companies worldwide can now play a direct role in keeping critical metals in circulation, strengthening local supply chains, and ensuring a more sustainable future. 

The issues with battery recycling 

Batteries are powering the world's shift to clean energy, but their end-of-life journey remains startlingly inefficient. Transport costs make up 40 percent of recycling expenses, with the current use of multiple international recyclers driving them even higher. Stockpiles of spent batteries are a growing problem for businesses, yet they also represent an untapped opportunity. 

Battery recycling has evolved into a complex network of specialized providers, each offering different technologies and capabilities suited to specific battery types and volumes. For global companies, finding and evaluating the right recyclers in each region typically takes two to three months. ReBattery set its sights on fixing this process—companies can now access pre-vetted recyclers worldwide through a single platform, compare technologies and pricing, and secure deals within days. 

For battery recyclers and repurposers, ReBattery serves as a powerful procurement tool, ensuring reliable access to battery supply and supporting rapid operational scaling. 

ReBattery delivers:

• Higher returns: Compare offers across recyclers and reuse opportunities
• Global coverage and instant access to certified recyclers in every major market
• Automated compliance: Generate and track documentation required by jurisdiction
• Secure transactions: Standardised contracts and payment processing
• Logistics coordination to simplify battery transportation 

ReBattery's marketplace removes barriers that previously limited industry growth, such as complex logistics, high trading costs, and fragmented supply chains. As the global demand for battery metals soars, it is a catalyst for building efficient, localized networks for recycling and reuse. 

"While the lithium-ion battery market is growing exponentially, finding the right recycling or reuse partners remains complex and resource-intensive, especially for those managing battery stockpiles across multiple countries." said Alex Polglase, founder of ReBattery "Transforming this process into a few clicks, our platform gives original equipment manufacturers (OEM) a single dashboard to manage their entire battery recycling operation—from getting competitive local quotes to tracking compliance across regions."
