The problem with Electric Vehicle batteries are, they are designed to be cheap and long-lasting, with potential recycling of their materials currently not factored into their production, making recycling the batteries somewhat tricky.
In terms of durability, wind turbines last an average of about 25 years. About 85 percent of turbine component materials—such as steel, copper wire, electronics, and gearing—can be recycled or reused. However, the blades are different as they are made up of fibreglass (a composite material) to be lightweight for efficiency yet still durable enough to withstand storms. The mixed nature of the blade material makes separating the plastics from the glass fibres to recycle into a workable fibreglass material difficult—and the strength needed for the blades means they are also physically challenging to break apart.
