A self-proclaimed state-of-the-art facility that recycles lithium-ion batteries has opened for business at Gilbert Gateway Commerce Park.
Li-Cycle, a Canadian company, held a grand opening May 3 at the facility near Power Road and Loop 202. Lithium batteries power consumer electronics such as cell phones, laptops and electric vehicles.
According to the company, the facility is the largest commercial scale lithium-ion battery recycling operation to commence operations in Arizona to-date.
