🌍✨ Rivian expands Redwood partnership to recycle battery scrap and end-of-life packs
Why we’re watching: Rivian and Redwood Materials have expanded their partnership, and Redwood will recycle the automaker’s battery production scrap and end-of-life EV packs.
The expansion builds on the companies’ existing project, announced in April 2026, which is deploying 10 MWh of battery energy storage from repurposed Rivian packs at Rivian’s plant in Normal, Illinois. 💚
Redwood collects Rivian battery packs that are no longer suitable for in-vehicle use through Rivian’s nationwide network of service centers.
