I came across this today.

Ben Laszlo works for Kuusakoski Recycling, a recycling company with an HQ in Finland. He has "liked" the news that RIL has started trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. That company also appears to be active in other jurisdictions around Europe including Scandinavia & the UK.

Scandinavia is an area in which RIL has a 50:50 JV with CM.

From what I can tell Kuusakoski doesn't recycle batteries, they're just a recycler in general. What I found interesting was they've started to recycle EVs & have detailed the complexity & the procedure required to disassemble EVs.

Perhaps they need someone to crush & recycle the EV batteries?

Both RIL & Kuusakoski attended the Battery conference in Germany a while back, so perhaps that's where both parties crossed paths.

Kuusakoski - Battery Recycling Conference and Expo (batteryrecycling-expo.com)

I'm not implying any talks are underway, it's just an observation from a LinkedIn post. If anything, it just means both companies are aware of each other. Perhaps Kuusakoski is the new competition in the area, I don't know.
