Flux Power partners with LIB recycler

Flux Power Holdings Inc., a Vista, California-based developer of lithium-ion energy storage solutions for commercial and industrial equipment, has announced a new partnership aimed at enhancing the recycling process for end-of-life lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).

Flux Power has not disclosed the name of its partner, but describes it as “the largest critical battery components recycling company in the U.S.”

According to Flux Power, its recycling partner is focused on creating a circular supply chain for electric vehicles (EVs) and clean energy products, making them more sustainable and driving down the cost for batteries by developing and deploying new technologies to increase the scope and scale of recycled and sustainable materials in the global battery supply chain.

As the demand for battery recycling continues to grow alongside its expanding business, Flux Power says it recognizes the importance of addressing the recycling needs of products sold in the past decade. The company says its existing recycling initiative responsibly decommissions returned battery packs, ensuring the recycling of components, including electronics, wires, cables, sheet metal and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) lithium-ion cells and modules.

“Through this collaboration, our recycling partner has commenced the reception and recycling of these cells and modules, marking a major milestone in our sustainability efforts,” Flux Power CEO Ron Dutt says. “By aligning with a leader in the recycling industry, Flux Power continues to champion innovation and excellence in reclaiming valuable materials and supporting a closed-loop supply chain, thereby contributing to a more sustainable future and supporting global electrification efforts.”

The company says it is dedicated to helping customers reduce their carbon footprint and improve their environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance, and that its new partnership underscores its commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.
