Our research highlights some areas where standards could contribute to developing #circular business models for #ElectricVehicle batteries:
👉definitions to clarify liability when battery enters a 2nd life
👉state of health info
👉identification of EV battery design + chemistry
What role could standards and safety requirements have in supporting the #circularity (reuse, repurposing, and recycling) of #ElectricVehicle li-ion batteries? ⚡️♻️
Here's a recent report we did for CSA Group which attempted to answer just that 👉 https://t.co/FATZyRQrWq
We have a new interview section on our website featuring prominent Canadians answering 7 questions on what it means to #pivotgreen. Since its the playoffs, we present the responses of 2 NHLers: Kyle Turris and Scott Niedermayer.

Another Earth Day idea? Put a donut rim of mulch around your trees (If you are lucky to have them) to protect them from mechanical damage #pivotgreen#EarthDay2022
Our final PG tip for Earth Day: Plant a tree in your yard or organize to have a tree/some trees planted where you live. Plan to water them for the first 3 years #pivotgree#EarthDay2022
Pleased to share the key findings from our work last year for @NRCan to quantify current #recycling efforts in Canada 🇨🇦.

I had the pleasure of being interviewed by @ICDCanada for an article on how Canadian business & political leaders need to intensify efforts to modernize the energy sector and transition to a #lowcarbon economy. Read it here 👉https://t.co/51itMu1ijL
Together with @MilletteEnviro and Gracestone Inc., we recently carried out a study for @APIenergy which looked at the nascent business of #recycling and #reusing#electricvehicle (EV) batteries in North America. Download the high-level summary here👉 https://t.co/GpurBuOGVA
Recovering minerals & metals from end-of-life #electricvehicle (EV) batteries contributes to the #CircularEconomy and is essential to meet the huge supply required to meet lithium battery demand for #EVs in the next 10 years. @MilletteEnviro https://t.co/3dXnfZKRI4
@TRCA_HQ is proud to celebrate the launch of its film, as part of @WorldGBC’s “Building a Better Future”, produced by @BBCStoryWorks. The short film tells the story of our vital work and new administrative office. https://t.co/MzcuiKISb1
