Mercedes-Benz has inaugurated Europe’s first battery recycling plant with an integrated mechanical-hydrometallurgical process in Kuppenheim, Germany. Partnering with Primobius, the facility can recover over 96% of valuable materials like lithium, cobalt, and nickel, which will be reused in new batteries for electric vehicles (BEVs). The plant’s eco-friendly hydrometallurgical process is more energy-efficient than traditional methods, with lower temperatures of up to 80°C. The facility can recycle 2,500 tons annually, feeding production for 50,000 new battery modules. The project has received support from Germany's Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and aims to boost raw material sustainability in the automotive sector.

The construction and operation of a biogas plant in Wiesbaden, Germany, have been provisionally approved, with a final decision expected by the Wiesbaden City Council at the end of September 2024. The €35 million ($38.7 million) project will process 60,000 metric tons of organic waste annually, producing approximately 8.9 million cubic meters of biogas. This biogas will be upgraded to around 5 million cubic meters of biomethane per year, sufficient to supply over 10,000 households.

The plant is a joint venture between the Rheingau-Taunus district and the state capital Wiesbaden, operating through the newly established company, in which both entities hold a 50% share. The facility will be located at the Dyckerhoffbruch landfill site, overseen by ELW’s Operations Manager Markus Patsch.
