About Us
Who We Are
With Illinois being one of the best places to do business, we started Re-New-Able as an American Startup to support battery recycling with a focus on creating a circular economy for the battery industry.
The founder met Governor JB Pritzker at an EV Industry Day and met his team at the DCEO and Intersect IL. They supported the idea of a startup that took root at Governor Pritzker’s EV Industry Day.
With the help and support of so many local and State agencies, and so many great friends, we are proud of our inception in the State of IL.
