A new plant for lithium-ion processing and recycling facilities will be established at Stawell, after Enviropacific Services received a $1-million State Government grant.
Environment Minister Steve Dimopoulos announced on Friday two projects would share in $3.5 million to establish lithium-ion processing and recycling facilities.
Ecobatt is the other company to receive $2.5 million to establish a lithium battery processing and recycling plant in Campbellfield, Melbourne.
Together, the two projects will increase Victoria’s capacity to process lithium-ion batteries by 19,500 tonnes each year.
