Colorado makes automakers responsible for EV waste batteries, bans landfilling from 2029

Colorado will put responsibility for collecting and processing waste electric vehicle batteries on automakers, aiming to institutionalise a recycling system as EV adoption increases. Under the SB26-003 bill signed in June, manufacturers must retrieve batteries that have reached the end of their life or are no longer used by owners and manage collection, reuse, recycling and disposal. The state will also phase out landfilling, banning landfills from accepting EV batteries from July 2029.

Cramer said recent moves have been hard to predict, citing GE Vernova’s plunge after earnings and Nvidia’s rebound, as well as utilities rising even as Treasury yields climbed.
