It isn't easy to recycle high-voltage batteries from electric cars,关键字2 but Porsche wants to take a stab at it. The plan: extract raw materials from old EV batteries to make fresh ones for its own electric models.

The company announced last week that it's embarked on a pilot project to figure out a recycling process that's suitable to scale up.

"With the help of innovative recycling processes, we strive to increase our independence from volatile and geopolitically unstable raw material markets," explained Porsche board member Barbara Frenkel.
