Rockwell Automation provides sustainable and traceable raw materials for the EV industry

The new recycling plant will focus on cobalt, nickel, and manganese refining, black mass and scrap battery recycling, and pCAM manufacturing.

Electra Battery Materials, a processor of low-carbon, ethically sourced battery materials, is expanding its Ontario, Canada refinery to develop North America’s first integrated electric vehicle (EV) Battery Materials Park.

Operations will be built on Rockwell Automation industrial automation services and technologies, offering data and reporting essential in the mining and metals industry, where sustainability and safety are top priorities.

“Once we’re up and running we will be able to track our product from the very beginning from suppliers through to our customers. With all this data, we’ll be able to understand, to improve, and to provide progress to society,” explained Renata Cardoso, vice president of sustainability and low carbon at Electra Battery Materials.

Currently in the pilot phase, Electra expects to start the commercial operation later this year. Additional refinery and production will commence in phases in 2024 and 2025.
