REBATTEX and LKQ Atracco - one of the Nordic region’s leading vehicle dismantling groups, have agreed a framework for offering eligible used electric vehicle batteries through the REBATTEX platform, covering participating LKQ Atracco operations in Sweden and Norway. The collaboration will connect LKQ Atracco with prospective buyers across Europe and support transactions with structured battery information, documentation and traceability. By making relevant information easier to share between sellers and buyers, the platform is designed to strengthen trust and support responsible trade
in used batteries. “Building a functioning market for used EV batteries takes more than bringing buyers and sellers together. It requires trust, traceability, and clear information throughout the transaction. Our cooperation with LKQ Atracco is an important step towards making that market work in practice,” says Andy Rietschel, CEO of REBATTEX. “Used EV batteries are a valuable resource, and a stronger market can create more opportunities for them to be put to productive and circular reuse. We see potential in combining our experience in automotive recycling with REBATTEX’s
dedicated platform for trusted battery transactions,” says Magnus Tagesson, CEO of LKQ Atracco. The cooperation aims to make eligible batteries more accessible for repair, reuse and other suitable applications, with documentation and transaction processes that support trust and traceability across the market. The agreement provides a basis for developing the collaboration over time in response to practical experience and market demand.
