🎉 Looking back at STARTUP AUTOBAHN powered by Plug and Play #EXPO2024, we’d like to take a moment and congratulate Webasto Group, cylib, and Porsche AG on winning the Plug and Play Global Innovation Award! 🏆 cylib’s technology gives access to locally produced battery raw materials by sustainably recycling End of Life batteries and production scraps. 🔋 cylib has successfully proven its technology on the batteries of Webasto Group and Porsche AG, with all the elements of the batteries being extracted in separate fractions. The reached yields are in line with all upcoming EU regulations. 🌟 Linus Glowinski, cylib: „To achieve a true circular battery economy, cylib needs to collaborate with strong and mission-driven partners. We’re thrilled to have found such partners in Webasto and Porsche.” 🌟 Jonathan Hörz, Porsche AG: ”Among other goals, Porsche is striving for a closed battery raw material cycle. Batteries and their battery cell modules should be used in our vehicles for as long as possible and then either be used in energy storage systems or their raw materials should be reused in new batteries using modern recycling processes. The pilot project helped us to jointly elaborate valuable findings for achieving this goal." 🌟 Nedzad Shala, Webasto Group: “We are proud to be part of this project, advancing our batteries in recycling. Our goal is to minimize the carbon footprint and ensure the batteries are easy to recycle, keeping raw materials within the cycle. With cylib as a partner, we are one step closer to more sustainable batteries.” 📖 Learn more about the project here: https://lnkd.in/etdEyVah 📺 Watch the video presentation of the project at EXPO2024 here: https://lnkd.in/em2a_6JQ 👏 Philipp Rupprecht Philip Minkwitz Georg Rossmair Luca Kick Martin Svigir Fabian Wulfrath Lilian Schwich Gideon Schwich Heiko Laufenberg #startupautobahn #expo2024 #award #PNPTC
