Renault SA said Thursday that it is collaborating with Veolia Environnement SA and Solvay SA to recycle end-of-life, electric-vehicle battery metals.

The French car maker said the three companies are setting up a preindustrial demo plant in France to extract and purify end-of-life EV battery metals under an experimental phase of their partnership.

The partnership effort seeks to establish a sustainable supply source for battery metals, such as cobalt, nickel and lithium, Renault said.

"We aim at implementing innovative and low-carbon, battery-recycling solutions to pave the way to sustainable sourcing for strategic battery materials as electric mobility is growing," Renault Chief Executive Luca de Meo said.
