Key Lines from this announcement -

"The ‘end-to-end’ CDT will test Hub process improvements using cells from discharged and disassembled customer EV modules
that have been shredded in the Hilchenbach Spoke. "

I'm interested in the why for this, where we previously not set up to recycle these batteries discharged , is it just discharging the batteries or is it also additional processes removing casings etc? was this an oversight ... From reading other recycling setups (northvolt, redwood ) discharging the batteries is a normal part of the process.

"The new CDT is a prerequisite for the MB Spoke, which is now expected to be offered in late Q1 2023 with each of the Hub ECS,
MBHub plant and Stelco plant supply agreements expected in late Q2 2023."

Looks like we loose a Quarter of time due to this process change (which wasn't expected) as our customers want to see how this process change impacts our finished outputs.
