Portovesme Hub
Project.
OUR PROJECT
The planned Portovesme Hub project is located in Sardinia, Italy.
Li-Cycle and Glencore are collaborating to assess the technical and economic viability of a new Hub facility in Portovesme, Italy, including a concept and pre-feasibility study. The project is expected to leverage Li-Cycle’s patented Spoke & Hub Technologies™ and utilize parts of Glencore’s existing Portovesme facility. The project has the potential to address the lack of post-processing recycling capacity in Europe, which is needed for a localized closed-loop battery supply chain and to provide a sustainable secondary source of critical battery materials. The black mass processed at the Portovesme Hub would be supplied from Glencore’s commercial network and Li-Cycle’s Germany Spoke.
