| Abstract(E) | The rapid scale-up of electric vehicle (EV) production is driving unprecedented demand for cathode active materials (CAM). This paper analyses how battery recycling technologies can support Europe's CAM supply by modelling end-of-life (EoL) battery recovery to 2040. A bottom-up model simulates EoL flows based on EV sales, pack lifetimes and chemistry shifts. The study also considers black mass availability from other sources like Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). Emerging recycling technologies are benchmarked to estimate secondary outputs of critical materials. Results show that high-efficiency hydrometallurgical process could supply a meaningful share of Europe's CAM precursor demand by mid to late-2030s, highlighting key technology gaps and the need for scaling recycling capacity to meet the requirements from emerging regulatory frameworks. |
