Tesla's battery recycling program increased its performance between 2022 and 2023. In 2023 the American company recovered more lithium and nickel than in 2022. However, the volume of copper and cobalt recovered for recycling dropped in 2022.
The battery-electric vehicle manufacturer is one of the market leaders in electric vehicles and seeks to reduce its reliance on primary mined minerals to improve its environmental footprint.
