Overburdened Landfills and Overmined Resources

At ExPost, we're reinventing sustainable energy storage

Lithium-ion batteries are a foundational piece of technology enabling the world’s transition to clean energy. They power our daily lives, from smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles and home energy storage systems.

However, the proliferation of these batteries leads to undesirable and unacceptable social and economic impacts. In addition to filling up precious landfill spaces, lithium-ion batteries contain toxic chemicals and metals that can contaminate our water supplies and food systems. The precious metals needed to produce more batteries are limited in supply and sourced mostly from regions with limited worker safety regulations.
