EU OEM Expansion Li-Cycle's EU expansion with exclusive Germany Spoke and partnerships with premium automotive OEMs creates a ready pipeline of European EV battery feedstock customers. Sales opportunity: target additional European automotive OEMs and battery manufacturers for exclusive or preferred recycling agreements to secure steady supply of recycled materials, emphasizing local processing capacity to meet EU regulatory and sustainability goals.

BESS Growth In 2024 Li-Cycle recycled the equivalent of over 100 MWh from its BESS partners, signaling rising demand from the US battery energy storage market. Sales opportunity: approach BESS developers, EPCs, and integrators for long-term recycling service agreements and feedstock supply, plus bundled services supporting battery fleet rollouts.

Proprietary Tech Spoke & Hub technology is patent-protected and enables recovery of critical materials from both manufacturing scrap and end-of-life batteries, supporting a closed‑loop supply chain. Sales angle: position Li-Cycle as a trusted partner to provide compliant, scalable recycling capacity and material supply under long-term contracts to OEMs and pack manufacturers.

Policy Driven Demand U.S. policy shifts, including the recently publicized Executive Order on American Energy, align with Li-Cycle's domestic material recovery mission. Sales angle: engage US-based OEMs and battery producers seeking localized feedstock and compliance with 'buy American' and critical-material strategies, exploring exclusive or priority partnerships.

Global Footprint With a worldwide customer and partner base, Li-Cycle can offer cross-border recycling services and diversified feedstock sourcing to multinational battery companies, enabling scalable capacity and supply-chain resilience across regions.
