In 2024, Battery Council International (BCI) celebrated its 100-year anniversary as the leading trade association of the North American battery industry. Our passion is educating people on the critical role of batteries in powering our daily lives – and unlocking the tremendous potential of energy storage, especially for achieving a lower carbon future. Above all, our members are committed to safe, responsible battery manufacturing and sustaining the world’s most successful circular economy.
BCI’s National Recycling Rate Study confirms that the U.S. lead battery industry continues its outstanding recycling rate of 99% — the highest of any consumer product in the U.S. Lead batteries are the gold standard in how to create a highly successful, closed-loop, domestic circular economy.
A recent study commissioned by BCI shows the U.S. battery industry contributes $10 trillion in domestic economic output and supports over 54 million diverse American jobs that are reliant on the battery industry.
The electrification of the global car parc is underway and batteries are a key enabler. Lead batteries are critical to accelerating the transition, nearly every electric vehicle requires a 12V battery, which typically is a lead battery. Lead batteries are also key to creating more – and more sustainable – EV charging stations. With a 99% recycling rate, lead batteries elevate the sustainability profile of EVs and lead-battery-supported charging stations.
The energy landscape is quickly changing, propelled by the need for domestically secure cleaner, greener energy. Battery energy storage is essential for harnessing renewable energy power, including wind and solar energy storage, for commercial, residential and community-based installations. Multiple battery chemistries, including lead batteries, are pivotal in maximizing both the efficiency and sustainability of renewable energy sources.
The Energy Storage Grand Challenge report….reflects growing recognition from DOE and others that lead batteries are among important energy storage technologies that require investment to secure America’s global leadership on technological innovation and a green economy infrastructure.
