LOHUM

LOHUM in a landmark JV with ReElement Technologies & American Metals LLC will establish the United States' first fully integrated critical minerals & battery lifecycle management facility with an initial investment of US$30 Million. The state-of-the-art 15.5 GWh facility will be located at the Marion Advanced Technology Center in Indiana. The facility will create 250 green jobs and produce enough battery-grade materials to power over 315,000 EVs annually. On this milestone, LOHUM Founder & CEO Rajat Verma expressed- "As LOHUM expands its presence in North America, we welcome this opportunity to partner with ReElement and American Metals, companies that share LOHUM's goals of 'making battery materials last forever'. We believe the joint venture will be instrumental in building resilient critical material supply chains in the U.S. that can sustain themselves through circularity. This is an inspiring development in U.S.-India technology collaboration through market entities." Read more on Yahoo!

Growing globally, rooted locally: We hosted hon'ble CEO UPSIDA (Mayur Maheshwari) among delegates from the UPSIDA_Official on a tour of our facilities and interactions with various teams. Upon meeting Shri Mayur Maheshwari at the UP International Trade Show 2024, he was intrigued by our work and wanted to learn more about us. The delegates visited our Lithium and Cathode Active Material production facilities in Greater Noida, meeting our scientists, engineers, and managers. We thank UPSIDA for expressing interest in #ClosedLoop technology, and look forward to explore ever increasing avenues of synergy. Together, we accelerate the development of Greater Noida and Uttar Pradesh as a hub of #CircularEconomy.

LOHUM champions #Battery #CircularEconomy at Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay: We met professors and students at IIT Bombay to identify the scope of academic contributions in the field of battery and #CriticalMinerals circularity research. LOHUM's VP of R&D, Dr. Chidambaram Mandan delivered a seminar on 'Economical and Environmentally Friendly Recycling Methods with High Outputs - Green Recycling', where he expressed- "If academia can join hands with us, together we can push down the costs of manufacturing battery materials while simultaneously setting new records in purity as well as yield. That is one point where we can start collaborating; start discussing to begin with. All industries have strong R&D, but often the simulation part is missing. If we can start collaborating from that perspective to cover the theoretical aspects, that will have an immediate effect, and we'd be glad to take that up." Thanking IIT Bombay Research Hub for Green Energy and Sustainability (GESH IITB), Prof. Jayasree Biswas, Prof. Pankaj Jhunja, Dr. Kaushal Kumar Jha and Dr. Wazeem Nishad for organizing the seminar series. Looking forward to emerging industry-academia collaboration opportunities in the field. #EnergyTransition #IndiaInc #BatteryRecycling #ClosedLoop #IIT #IndustryAcademia

Celebrating a growth-packed week at LOHUM! We're buzzing with excitement about the waves we're making in India and globally. Here's a snapshot of our journey: 🤝 A Game-Changing Partnership: LOHUM, ReElement Technologies & American Metals LLC join forces! We're launching the USA's first fully integrated critical minerals & battery lifecycle management facility with an initial investment of $30 Million! 🌍 🇪🇺 Diplomatic Dialogues: Our VP Pratyush Sinha received admiration and support for our work from - India's ambassador to the E.U., European Union's. Deputy DG for Research and Innovation & India's Secretary of Department of Science & Technology, Government of India DST; the topic of the hour being collaboration on #CriticalMinerals, in Brussels! 🎓Cambridge Calling: Sachin Maheshwari, our Head of Corporate Development, shared his perspective on stage at the University of Cambridge, speaking about Sustainable Business Models in critical mineral recycling for a greener, brighter, and circular future! ♻️🏭 UP Trade Show Spotlight: Our booth at the UP International Trade Show 2024 was the place to be. We had the honour of welcoming U.P. CM Yogi Adityanath, CEO Noida, and CEO Greater Noida. Talk about a power-packed visit! 🎓 Back to the Roots: LOHUM's Founder & CEO Rajat Verma returned to his alma mater for the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur Alumni Convention 2024 where the discerning audience heard him speak about sustainability and innovation - 2 chief factors driving value for Rising Bharat today. Huge shoutout to our amazing partners and collaborators!

Together, we're not just talking about change – we're making it happen.

A global #MadeinIndia startup with IIT roots: At LOHUM, IITians from Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur batches between 1979 to 2017 make up a notable percentage of our 600 strong workforce, positioned across a wide range of roles. LOHUM Founder & CEO Rajat Verma visited his #IIT roots and met familiar faces at the IITK Alumni Convention 2024: Rising Bharat, where the alumni discussed 'Sustainability and Innovation as a Driver for Value Generation'. Highlighting that US$ 10 trillion is expected to be invested to achieve our net zero goals by 2070, he expressed- "Today, LOHUM is at a cost structure where we are the only alternative to China globally, and we have barely scratched the surface. While we may be planning to grow 10-20x in the next 3 years, there’s still a lot of work to be done. We need to build a data infrastructure in the country to know how much waste there truly is. Without high-quality data, we will have a lot of false starts. But if we can size the problem well, we can truly unleash entrepreneurial energies. There is a potential to create a few hundred if not a thousand unicorns." Together, we look forward to making closed-loop economies a reality. Thanking Mr. Rohit Dhawan, Owner - Micro Power Systems, Secretary - IITK Alumni, Mr. Rohit Toshniwal CoFounder Sprih, Mr. Sharad Agarwal, Founder at Indian School of Development Management, Mr. PRAVEER AGRAWAL Executive Director Marketing (GAIL India Ltd.), Director (Central UP Gas Limited) & Vice President (GSASL), Mr. Vivek Bhagwat, Consultant at Arista Networks for the insightful discussion.

Blood Donation Drive @ LOHUM: As part of our commitment to give back to the world around us, we hosted a Blood Donation Camp in partnership with the Government Institute of Medical Sciences (GIMS), Greater Noida. The camp was the first of two, and the second will be held next week. LOHUM employees showed up in great numbers and made a meaningful contribution to saving lives. Each of your contributions can save up to three lives because the three primary components- red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, can be separated and used to help patients experiencing different ailments. Thanking all of our people who stepped up for the cause. #BloodDonation #CommunityService #GivingBack #SavingLives #TeamSpirit #GIMS
