Recycling service providers believe the battery regulation will accelerate raw material markets and the development of recycling technologies. Producer responsibility often forms the financial basis for battery recycling, as there has not yet been demand for all the chemical substances they contain. Business opportunities in reuse are also of interest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the Battery Regulation Seminar, recycling service providers shared their views on how the regulation will affect their operations. The seminar was held in Heureka, Vantaa, in August 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Panel participants agreed on one of the biggest changes the regulation brings to their operations: the battery regulation will change the markets for recycled battery materials.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cThe increase in collection rates will bring more recyclables, which means more business for us, which is of course positive,\u201d says Tommi Karjalainen, CEO of AkkuSer Oy.<\/p>\n

Markets do not yet function fully competitively \u2013 for example, virgin materials are often cheaper \u2013 so producer responsibility often provides an important financial basis for recycling.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cProducer responsibility ensures that all material goes to recycling regardless of chemistry; you can\u2019t just pick the raisins out of the cake,\u201d says Joni Korkola, Business Manager at Stena Recycling Oy.<\/p>\n

Challenges for recyclers: efficiency and recovery requirements, new chemistries and fractions<\/h2>\n

The battery regulation gradually increases recycling efficiency and material recovery requirements until 2031, which also poses challenges for recyclers.<\/p>\n

The reporting requirements demand more detailed tracking and identification of different battery and device categories. Calculating the required recovery rates requires recyclers to know the composition of incoming batteries more precisely than before.<\/p>\n

This is a challenge that the upcoming battery passport, required by the regulation, is expected to partially solve. The battery-specific passport will be attached to the battery at the beginning of its lifecycle and will include information about the battery\u2019s composition.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cWithout a battery passport, it is extremely challenging for us to identify the chemistry of certain batteries. As the first recycler, it is our duty to report recovery rates. We send the batteries forward for crushing and rely on the information provided by our partners,\u201d says Ben L\u00e1szl\u00f3, Head of ITAD at Kuusakoski Oy. ITAD refers to the company\u2019s reuse business and recycling and disposal of IT equipment.<\/p>\n

Panelists also highlighted that not all batteries yet have recycling solutions.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cAmbitious recycling targets must be met, but for LFP, lithium iron phosphate batteries, we need to find new solutions in Europe,\u201d says Korkola of Stena Recycling Oy.<\/p>\n

Lifecycle thinking in the battery regulation benefits recyclers<\/h2>\n

Panelists pointed out that the regulation\u2019s lifecycle approach is a positive aspect, meaning finding recycling solutions is no longer only the recycler\u2019s responsibility.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cThe battery regulation partly guides manufacturers to consider the raw and binding materials they use and the recyclability already in the design phase. Responsibility for recycling extends to manufacturers as well,\u201d says Teija K\u00e4pynen, Environmental Manager at Fortum Battery Recycling Oy.<\/p>\n

Considering recyclability also benefits the manufacturer, as the regulation sets minimum recycled material content requirements.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cIf we don\u2019t recover them, they can\u2019t use them in production either. This is an entire chain, and we all as actors influence it,\u201d she continues.<\/p>\n

Potential of reuse and remanufacturing sparks interest<\/h2>\n

The regulation has sparked interest in business opportunities for reuse and remanufacturing.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cWe are very interested in reuse and are actively working on finding various solutions,\u201d says Korkola of Stena Recycling.<\/p>\n

However, reuse must be weighed against producer obligations under the battery regulation.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cThere is a lot of potential, but it also comes with significant responsibilities and requirements \u2013 the same as for the producer,\u201d says K\u00e4pynen of Fortum.<\/p>\n

Producer organisations are central to recyclers\u2019 business<\/h2>\n

Battery producer organisations use responsible recycling service providers for the collection, transport, and treatment of used batteries. For service providers, producer organisations are central to their business.<\/p>\n

AkkuSer Oy, founded in 2005, offers recycling services to producer organisations. It owns Finland\u2019s only battery sorting and recycling plant for batteries and small batteries, located in Nivala.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cLegislation has been central to our story because not everything is market-driven. In 2006 came the Battery Directive, and in 2008 separate collection began. That provided the foundation for our business,\u201d says CEO Tommi Karjalainen.<\/p>\n

AkkuSer receives all separately collected batteries from Recser, sorts, crushes, and sends the fractions or sorted batteries to further processors.<\/p>\n

Fortum Battery Recycling Oy, founded in 2005, now has a significant commercial EV battery recycling value chain at the European level.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cWe are interested in expanding operations to industrial battery recycling as well,\u201d says Environmental Manager Teija K\u00e4pynen.<\/p>\n

Central to its operations is its own hydrometallurgical battery material recycling plant in Harjavalta. Additionally, the company has a battery crushing plant in Ikaalinen and a battery pre-processing plant in Kirchardt, Germany, and a crushing plant under development.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cThe black mass from the process is further treated in Harjavalta into nickel-cobalt sulfate solution, which is delivered to battery material manufacturers as raw material,\u201d says K\u00e4pynen.<\/p>\n

Kuusakoski Recycling Oy, founded in 1914, is a family company offering a wide range of recycling services, for example for batteries, electrical and electronic equipment, and recyclable plastics.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cWe work with almost all Finnish producer organisations, if not all,\u201d says Head of ITAD Ben L\u00e1szl\u00f3.<\/p>\n

In the battery value chain, Kuusakoski acts as the first recycler, sending materials and products forward.<\/p>\n

Safety is central to Kuusakoski\u2019s operations, as they handle, store, and export batteries. The company\u2019s new product, a smart battery sensor, warns of battery fire before ignition.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cCurrent market technologies detect fire after it has started. The smart sensor detects electrolyte gas leakage before the battery starts burning. It monitors local air and sends an alert to any client software, enabling preventive measures,\u201d says L\u00e1szl\u00f3.<\/p>\n

Stena Recycling Oy, founded in 2005, operates recycling services in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Poland, and Italy.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cWe work with practically all Finnish producer organisations in some capacity, from paper to tires,\u201d says Key Account Manager Joni Korkola.<\/p>\n

The company has its own battery crushing plant in Sweden, where the black mass is sold at the best market price.<\/p>\n

\u2013 \u201cStena\u2019s role sits between Kuusakoski and Fortum: Stena has the crushing plant that Kuusakoski doesn\u2019t have, but no hydrometallurgy, which Fortum has,\u201d Korkola says with a smile.<\/p>\n
