Back to EpisodesNevada Launches Lithium Battery Recycling Program
Description
Nevada introduces statewide lithium battery recycling program with Redwood Materials, Washoe County, and Nevada Tech Hub. Twenty smart recycling bins target common household items, aiming to reduce landfill waste, lower fire risks, and reuse valuable materials in the U.S. supply chain. Locals can easily drop off items with no need for bags or special prep, as bins feature safety measures like heat sensors and fire-suppressing materials. Ten bins will be placed in Washoe County, with the rest distributed across the state. Nevada Tech Hub contributes $450,000 for bin construction, placement, and staff support, while Washoe County hosts units and promotes proper recycling.
