Omega Seiki Mobility, a leading electric vehicle manufacturer has announced a partnership with Attero, a leading e-waste management and lithium-ion battery recycling.

The partners state that with over 10,000 electric vehicles already deployed by Omega Seiki, Attero will play a key role in repurposing their batteries for energy storage, aligning with the shared devotion of both entities to address the complete lifecycle of EV components and ensure responsible EV battery solutions.

Omega Seiki plans to deploy EV batteries totalling over 1 GWH in the next 5 years, accompanied by a collective target with Attero to recycle over 100 MWh of batteries in the next 3-4 years, emphasising their dedication to sustainable practices and environmental stewardship.

Uday Narang, Founder and Chairman, Omega Seiki said, “In the pursuit of excellence and sustainability, waste management holds a pivotal role in shaping the trajectory of Omega Seiki. Through our collaboration with Attero, we reaffirm our dedication to environmental stewardship, aiming not only to propel advancements in EV technology but also to set industry benchmarks in conscientious battery waste management.”

Nitin Gupta, CEO & Co-Founder, Attero said, “With EV production on the rise, it is becoming critical for India to have a sustainable approach to recycling lithium-ion batteries. The improper disposal of li-ion battery recycling is not only an environmental threat but also a wasted opportunity to extract rare materials. At Attero, we extract battery grade metals like cobalt, lithium carbonate, graphite with 98% efficiency utilising our innovative, globally patented, and world-class technology, contributing to the carbon-positive circular economy."
