Benefits of the Decoupled Model Regional spokes result in shorter transportation 1 distances, thereby reducing logistics costs The distance travelled batteries as Dangerous 2 Goods is reduced by rendering them inert at Spoke Spoke 2 3 the Spoke Outputs of the Spoke are saleable and can 3 generate revenue independent of the Hub CENTRAL Spoke Spoke 1 HUB 4 LEGEND EXAMPLE CAPACITIES Incoming batteries Spoke: ≥5,000 t/y Black mass (inert) Hub: ≥20,000 t/y By-products for sale or further recycling Isolated battery-grade end-products for return to batteries and the economy 7
