Description

New Projections for the global battery electric vehicle market go from 47 billion US Dollar in 2020  to 212 billion in 2030. The demand for these batteries will remain high. But the challenging aspect of the waste is not yet properly mentioned in a lot of discussions. Partly because the literature is very thin and there is not much data yet. Still this issue will become increasingly challenging especially in emerging nations which have a lot of this waste to manage. Matt and his Team tried to dig a little deeper into this issue and found angles to tackle this problem of waste management in Kenya. In this podcast we will have a discussion about what problem they face and what could be implemented to manage it properly.
