BATTERIES
The global battery market was worth US$ 60 billion in 2014, Christophe Pillot declared at the recent International Congress for Battery Recycling. 'This represents no less than an average growth of 5% per year from 1990 to 2014,' pointed out the director of consulting firm Avicenne Energy. The Swiss city of Montreux provided the beautiful backdrop to the 20th anniversary of this annual event where delegates were once again reminded: 'Lithium is a big business.'
