"Electric vehicle battery recycling crisis: New Colorado law seeks to address costly problem. As the electric vehicle market continues to grow, a growing concern is emerging about what happens to the batteries when they reach the end of their life. For many EV batteries, recycling is not economically viable, leaving manufacturers and consumers with a costly and complex disposal issue. A new law in Colorado aims to change this by establishing a framework for battery recycling and creating a market for the valuable materials they contain, potentially paving the way for a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly EV industry."


For some electric vehicle batteries, it costs more to recycle them than they're worth. That creates all kinds of problems, which a new Colorado law aims to solve.
