LICO, on the other hand, will look after end-of-life battery recycling. It will recover materials like lithium, cobalt, manganese, and nickel for reuse purposes. It will also assist MG Motor India in its Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) obligations and will provide comprehensive battery recycling and certification services. “Through our partnership with MG Motor India, we aim to set new standards for circular economy principles in the automotive sector; by providing comprehensive battery recycling and repurposing solutions to take the lead in this sector,” explained Gaurav Dolwani, CEO, LICO Materials Pvt. Ltd. 

MG Motor India has already installed over 15,000 charging touchpoints nationwide, including home and public chargers. Moreover, under its ‘MG Charge’ umbrella, it has also installed 500 charging points in 500 days and aims to install 1000 charging points more, soon.
