Mercedes-Benz Energy and Lohum have signed on a multi-year partnership which enables Lohum to offtake 50MWh of second-use battery cell modules from Mercedes-Benz Energy per annum. This development will help Lohum upscale production of 2nd life battery applications for the Indian stationary and non-auto mobility energy storage markets. 

“Lohum is thinking about 2nd life in a very different way than most companies”, said Gordon Gassman, CEO of Mercedes-Benz Energy.

Both Lohum and Mercedes-Benz Energy believe that wherever possible, 2nd life combined with recycling offers the best solution for sustainability and value creation over the long term.
