The <em>Ley de Empleo e Inversi\u00f3n en Infraestructura (IIJA)<\/em> allocated more than $6 billion for advanced battery manufacturing, research, and development. This work has already supported 15 projects across the country to further the transition to a zero-emission transportation sector, strengthen energy security, and bolster American manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>The senators wrote in a letter to DOE Secretary Jennifer Granholm,<\/strong> \u201cAs the adoption of EVs accelerates, so too will the consumption of the critical minerals and materials needed to construct new batteries: projections indicate that, by 2034, the U.S. will consume roughly 500,000 metric tons of lithium, nickel, cobalt, manganese, and graphite, combined. The global supply of these minerals is currently dominated by China, which accounts for 60% of production and 85% of processing capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Los senadores continuaron,<\/strong> \u201cEV battery recycling can help bridge the gap in our domestic supply chain and reduce our dependence on foreign imports . . . For example, some early entrants into the recycling field have salvaged up to 95% of the critical minerals from an EV battery. These high-efficiency yields will allow the U.S. to build a more resilient battery supply chain.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Specifically, the senators urged DOE to:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\" start=\"1\">\n<li><strong><em>Promote Battery Recycling in the Federal Government<\/em><\/strong>. DOE has been working across the federal government to electrify and optimize the efficiency of the federal fleet. DOE should consider partnering with other agencies to develop plans for managing retired federal EVs, including repurposing batteries through second-life applications and mineral recycling. The Department should also coordinate with the General Services Agency as it implements its Strategic EV Management provisions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Improve Used Battery Collection. <\/em><\/strong>DOE should leverage the <em>IIJA\u2019s <\/em>Consumer Electronics Battery Recycling, Reprocessing, and Battery Collection grant program to ensure a functional supply chain by working with grant recipients to coordinate the distribution of collected batteries to recyclers at scale. DOE should also work with recipients to conduct public outreach and education campaigns to maximize the efficacy of battery collection programs. Finally, DOE should coordinate with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on its Battery Collection Best Practices and Battery Labeling Guidelines, which the EPA is required to complete by 2026 under the <em>IIJA<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><em>Prioritize Technologies to Facilitate Efficient Recycling.<\/em><\/strong> DOE should continue to prioritize battery recycling as it implements the <em>IIJA<\/em>. Funding opportunities should focus on technologies that result in the highest yield of recycled minerals, reduce pollution from non-mineral components, and are the most energy efficient. DOE should also concentrate advanced manufacturing grants on battery designs that facilitate recycling to maximize circular management of resources.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Wyden and Merkley, the letter led by U.S. Senators Peter Welch (D-Vt.) and Gary Peters (D-Mich.) was signed by U.S. Senators Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), John Hickenlooper (D-Colo.), Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.), Edward J.
