In a recent interview, Scott shared his journey into the #battery world, why #flow technology is gaining serious traction, and how it's uniquely positioned to solve today's grid challenges. He’s also co-chairing Flow Batteries North America (FBNA) — the first U.S. event dedicated exclusively to this emerging sector, happening Oct. 27–29 in Chicago. 🚀 Read the full interview to learn why this is the moment to get involved — and how you can help shape the future of energy storage: https://lnkd.in/eAyp_rG6

♻️ This #AmericaRecyclesDay, we're proud to be part of an industry leading the way in circular manufacturing. #CircularEconomy The battery industry achieves a remarkable 99% recycling rate – turning old batteries into new ones through closed-loop processes that recover plastic, fluids, and critical metals. This isn't just environmental stewardship. It's economic security. Battery recycling supports 106,000 direct U.S. jobs, generates $35+ billion in business output, and reduces our dependence on foreign materials. When you factor in end-users, the impact grows to $10 trillion in economic output and 54 million American jobs reliant on our industry. Recycling works. And the battery industry proves it every day. 🔋♻️ Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/ecBitE3K

As utilities face pressure to decarbonize while meeting surging data center demand and renewable integration challenges, flow batteries are emerging as the critical solution for long-duration storage and grid resilience. 👉 Read the full story: https://lnkd.in/er6cAg2n

Battery Council International (BCI) leads the domestic battery manufacturing industry in celebrating the formal designation of lead as a critical mineral by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). This milestone is an overdue recognition of lead’s foundational role in the American economy as the primary raw material in the batteries that power effectively all cars and trucks, support critical communication infrastructure, and our national security. “The designation of lead as a critical mineral sends a strong signal to domestic battery manufacturers that policymakers and the American public stand behind them,” said Roger Miksad, President and Executive Director of BCI. “This act will help battery companies continue to invest in growth and innovation with confidence, and will support the world-class recycling network across North America that keeps this critical mineral onshore.” Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/eah3Hb5c
