Competition is heating up in these final few months of the Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Prize Breakthrough Contest. We are looking forward to learning more about your innovative solutions to improve the recovery of spent or discarded lithium-ion batteries. Breakthrough Contest final submissions are due Friday, August 30, 2024.
Prize participants are responsible for contacting Evaluation Entities to identify a proposed validation plan for their concept solution. Prize teams should complete the Overview Information and Evaluation Plan sections of the Evaluation Report (Recycler or Second-Life) for their Breakthrough Phase Submission requirements (Section 4. Evaluation Entity). For the Phase IV work, the rest of the Evaluation Entity report should be completed by the Evaluation Entity and submitted as part of the final documentation package. This document is considered business sensitive and will only be shared with the Lithium-Ion Battery Recycling Prize review committee.
We will be sharing more information about the approved Evaluation Entity options in the next few weeks. If you have any questions about the Evaluation Entity process, please reach out to .
