Redwood Materials

We've "topped out" or finished installing our final steel beam at our cathode facility at our Tahoe Campus, which, once complete, will represent the US' first commercial supply of CAM. This building will produce 20 GWh of CAM annually, enough for more than 250,000 electric vehicles. In coming years, we'll 5x it's footprint to 100 GWh annually, enough CAM to power 1.3 million EVs a year.

Compared to traditional methods of processing mined ore, Redwood's process uses 80% less energy, generates 70% fewer CO2 emissions, and requires 80% less water, setting new standards in resource efficiency. More on our Tahoe Campus and Stanford University's findings: https://lnkd.in/euTuCmWm

Redwood’s processes represent the United States’ first commercial lithium source and nickel “mine” to come online in decades. And we’re cutting refining CO2 emissions by over 70% with our sustainable, scalable approach. More on our Tahoe Campus and Stanford University's findings: https://lnkd.in/euTuCmWm

Today, we celebrate America’s independence and our progress towards energy independence through a domestic, battery materials supply chain. 

We've been named on #TIME100Companies for the second year! TIME's annual list highlights the most impactful companies around the world and we're honored to be included for our work building a domestic and sustainable battery materials supply chain! https://lnkd.in/gyuvFeis

We’re partnering with Ultium Cells LLC (the General Motors and LG Energy Solution joint venture) to recycle 100% of the production scrap from their Ohio and Tennessee battery plants. Together, we’re building America's battery supply chain. https://lnkd.in/gx9a3KAn

On Earth Day, our Rotary International partners collected thousands of pounds of batteries from their communities around the country in just a few hours. They shared their experience working with Redwood’s Consumer Program to create a more sustainable future. Inspired to host or attend an event? Visit https://lnkd.in/duwS3ds8

“Redwood Materials’ recycling process produces up to 80% fewer emissions than traditional supply chain using CO2 belching refineries. That’s enough to shorten an average EV’s environmental breakeven time with an internal combustion vehicle to less than 15,000 miles. Every mile thereafter is a carbon win against the internal combustion engine.” More reporting today from Bloomberg: https://lnkd.in/gGTfXG46

Every day is Earth Day at Redwood! Stanford University's recent study confirms we're driving scalable change in recycling and battery materials production.

We’re building America’s battery supply chain: ✅ First commercial-scale nickel "mine" and only lithium supply to come online in US in decades. ✅ Stanford University shows we cut CO2 by 40% compared to other recycling methods. What’s more—it’s scalable. We can process over 40,000 metric tons (about 15-20 GWh) annually and are expanding. ✅ Environmental costs of EV materials reduced by 80% vs. mining. We use 80% less energy, generate 70% fewer CO2 emissions, and require 80% less water, setting new standards in resource efficiency. Additionally, nothing goes to landfill and all process water is recycled (except for basic sanitary waste). Learn more: https://lnkd.in/euTuCmWm
