Tevva, Ecobat partner on EV battery repair, recycling

Ecobat says it will ensure Tevva’s lithium-ion batteries are handled, diagnosed and repaired effectively.

British electric vehicle manufacturer Tevva has entered into a strategic partnership with Ecobat, a battery recycling company, for the repair, repurposing and recycling of its lithium-ion batteries. The partnership kicks off with a 12-month pilot phase for first-life battery management, with the opportunity to expand into additional energy storage and recycling solutions.

In the case that an issue arises during vehicle life, Ecobat will ensure Tevva’s in-house assembled lithium-ion batteries are handled, diagnosed and repaired using the most effective and environmentally friendly methods, the companies say.

Tevva’s 7.5t battery-electric truck has recently entered mass production at the company’s London facility. The Tevva truck offers up to 140 miles from its 105 kWh battery on a single charge, and is ideal for last-mile and urban delivery fleets, the company says. This will be followed by a 7.5t hydrogen-electric truck, which benefits from a hydrogen range-extender that enhances vehicle range to up to 354 miles, Tevva says.
