Our hope is to close the gap in the lithium circular economy — and make stored energy accessible to everyone.
The futures of energy and mobility are renewable and electric. The promise of environmentally sustainable, cost-effective energy generation and transport is within reach — we just need to close the gap.
Lithium batteries are powering us towards this future but currently almost all lithium cells are made from mined or extracted lithium. While this works in the interim, like all natural resources raw lithium is finite. Fortunately, unlike oil and coal, there exists the option to reuse the lithium in batteries after they've reached the end of their life.
We aim to enable these resources to live on beyond the end of their design lifespan. By extracting and refurbishing lithium-ion cells from discarded batteries, we create a supply of cost-effective cells for use in renewable energy and electric mobility applications. This enables access to this technology for a far greater range of people — and helps drive us to a sustainable future.
In doing so, we close the gap on the circular economy by funding the renewable recycling of truly end-of-life cells — allowing them to become the resources for our future.
We believe every battery deserves the chance to live its full potential lifespan before its materials are recovered.
Second-life cells reduce the cost of renewable energy systems, making sustainable technology accessible to more people.
We reinvest the majority of any surplus profit back into the business to support our sustainability goals — not extracted as profit.
Through partners like Substation33 and PowerWells, recovered resources fund social enterprise — affordable second-life solar storage for remote communities, and employment for at-risk individuals.
S.L.C.A PTY LTD is a Brisbane-based company with national reach, focused on sustainability and innovation. Second Life Battery Sales (2L Batteries) is our online storefront for qualified battery builders and repairers to access second-life cells.
