Saudi Arabia Battery Recycling Market Trends:

Rapid Growth of End-of-Life Streams from EV and Grid-Scale Storage Deployments

Saudi Arabia’s strategic pivot toward electric mobility and renewable energy storage is accelerating the generation of spent lithium-ion batteries, creating both a recycling imperative and a high-value feedstock opportunity. While EV adoption is still nascent, with just 2,000 units sold in 2024, the government aims for 30% EV penetration by 2030, supported by the planned installation of 5,000 public chargers. Simultaneously, the deployment of utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) surged, driven by major solar-grid stabilization projects led by Sungrow, BYD, and local partners. This mounting volume of retired battery packs, rich in lithium, cobalt, and nickel, is spurring investment in advanced hydrometallurgical recycling facilities. The Saudi lithium-ion battery market reached USD 496.8 million in 2024, fueled by growth in both the storage and EV sectors. As Vision 2030 drives domestic battery manufacturing, recyclers are leveraging metal recovery technologies to reduce reliance on imports and enhance national supply-chain resilience.

Strategic Regulatory Frameworks and Mega-Scale Public–Private Investments

Under Vision 2030’s circular-economy framework, Saudi Arabia is rapidly scaling its battery-recycling capabilities through aggressive policy mandates and strategic state-backed investments. Leading the charge is the Saudi Investment Recycling Company (SIRC), a Public Investment Fund entity tasked with catalyzing circular-economy ventures. SIRC targets a USD 10 billion GDP contribution and 23,000 new jobs by 2030, with battery-recycling hubs as a key pillar. In December 2024, SIRC signed a milestone MoU with Veolia to co-develop advanced recycling and waste-treatment facilities, slated for completion by 2027, that will handle organic, industrial, hazardous, and battery waste. To attract private-sector participation, Saudi Arabia has introduced incentives such as accelerated depreciation on recycling equipment and preferential PIF-backed financing. Additionally, proposed updates to the Waste Management National Regulatory Framework include mandatory Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) schemes and recycled-content requirements for new battery packs. These coordinated policy levers and public–private partnerships are positioning the Kingdom as a regional leader in battery recycling, delivering both environmental impact and economic returns.
