During our recent Breakthrough contest information session, we invited all new and former Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling participants to submit a voluntary “Intent to Participate.” Although this is not a prize requirement, this quick form allows our judges to prepare for incoming Breakthrough contest submissions and ensure that we have enough support from Evaluation Entities. Please submit your voluntary Intent to Participate by Friday, May 31. 

If you missed the Breakthrough contest information session, you can view slides from the presentation or watch the recording below. 

In addition, prize administrators will be hosting an Evaluation Entity information session on Tuesday, May 28 at 1 p.m. ET specifically to discuss roles and expectations for Evaluation Entities during the Breakthrough contest and into Phase IV. Qualified lithium-ion battery recyclers and second-life testing organizations are encouraged to join this session. Interested prize participants are also welcome to join. Sign up for the Evaluation Entity information session.
