- TES and Galp will combine their expertise in battery recycling, industry, and energy towards an Iberian lithium-ion battery materials circular economy platform.
- This is a logical step in both companies' efforts to address one of the new energy system's top challenges while creating sustainable growth opportunities.
SINGAPORE / ACCESSWIRE / May 12, 2023 / Singapore-headquartered global IT asset lifecycle and battery recycling company TES and European integrated energy company Galp are joining forces to assess the development of a sustainable battery recycling business in Iberia, a vital link for setting up a local and full-cycle battery value chain.
To view this piece of content from www.accesswire.com, please give your consent at the top of this page.The two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly undertake the necessary steps to evaluate the feasibility of launching lithium-ion battery recycling operations (which may involve both mechanical and chemical processes) in Iberia.
Galp and TES will engage battery producers, automotive OEMs, EV fleet owners, and other sources of end-of-life batteries for battery material feedstock. The companies will also perform engineering studies aiming to design a competitive and sustainable process to convert the secured feedstock into recycled content battery materials to fully serve the requirements of offtake customers.
Galp has been transforming its businesses as it seeks to become a carbon-neutral energy company by 2050, dedicating more than half of its planned net investments to low-carbon energies and new businesses, including renewables, green hydrogen, low-carbon fuels, and electric mobility. It is also creating a lithium-conversion unit in Portugal, in partnership with a pioneer European battery producer, as the stepping stone to start a local battery value chain.
TES is deeply involved in all aspects of battery lifecycle management for every type of battery configuration, including batteries for electric vehicles (EVs), and is already operating battery recycling sites in Europe, Southeast Asia, and China.
"Lithium-ion batteries are vital for the electrification of mobility, the penetration of renewable energy into electricity systems as well as for a wide range of other applications. We must ensure the long-term availability of key battery materials, and to this end, circularity is essential," said Georgios Papadimitriou, Galp's EVP for Renewables and New Businesses. "Recycling will play a key role in the sustainability of the battery value chain going forward and this will only happen if we put the necessary skills and expertise to work today. That's what Galp and TES are doing," he added.
"We're excited about this MoU. As an organization, Galp has demonstrated its seriousness toward transitioning to a sustainable leader," said Thomas Holberg, Global Vice President of TES Sustainable Battery Solutions. "It is an honour to contribute to this enviable track record," he added.

SMBs Attract Talent with AI Upskilling as Large Firms Cut Jobs and Benefits, Study Finds18.8.2026 12:00:00 CEST | Press release
General Assembly study finds role-specific AI training is the most effective approach for SMBs NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / August 18, 2026 / Small-to-medium employers (SMBs) see their human talent as a key area of investment for the AI era and are seeing strong impact from role-specific AI training, according to new research from General Assembly, a global leader in practical AI skills training. Layoff and benefit reductions at larger companies have made it easier for SMBs to recruit and retain top talent, say 81% of human resources (HR) leaders at SMBs, while nearly half (47%) of SMBs have already hired from larger firms in the past year. "Growth-stage companies see AI adoption as a catalyst, not a cost-cutting exercise," said Daniele Grassi, CEO of General Assembly. "They're able to move faster to implement AI and scale it quickly, and they're upskilling their workforces accordingly. As talent sees daily headlines around layoffs and benefit reductions, they're increasingly
LiberNovo Previews Support Week 2026, Putting Better Ergonomic Support Within Reach18.8.2026 10:00:00 CEST | Press release
Support Week starts August 25. We've got your back. HONG KONG, HK / ACCESS Newswire / August 18, 2026 / One size does not fit all. Yet most ergonomic chairs are still built around a standard frame, leaving taller, broader, and heavier users adapting to the chair instead of the chair adapting to them. LiberNovo is addressing that gap with the Maxis Series, the lead range for LiberNovo Support Week 2026, opening August 25 across the European Union and United Kingdom. Built for Bigger Builds Maxis was engineered at full scale, not adapted from a standard chair platform. A 52 cm seat depth provides greater thigh support, while a wider seat cushion gives users more room to shift naturally. Its reinforced frame supports up to 181 kg. Maxis also features a five-stage recline control system from 105° to 160°, supported by a Segmented Support System using progressive springs. This provides controlled, consistent support throughout the recline range, even under heavier loads. Three configuration
