The new facility operates and complies with the standards as stated by the government’s vehicle scrapping policy - Voluntary Vehicle Fleet Modernization Program (V-VMP), which took effect in April 2022.

The project will establish a procedure for battery health assessment and develop methods for preparing replacement components and for disassembly and reassembly of battery packs.

This recycling facility is believed to be the first of its kind in India - it complies with the Indian government's Vehicle Scrapping Policy - Voluntary Vehicle Fleet Modernization Program (V-VMP), which took effect on April 1, 2022.

Scheduled to go into operation in July 2023, the plant will be able to recycle up to 15,000 metric tons of battery materials a year and is currently undergoing a series of diagnostic tests using old batteries from different manufacturers to develop and refine the operational mechanism to discharge, dismember, recycle and shred the remaining battery material.

The Used Parts Factory, a 3,000-square-metre plant situated within its Vénissieux site and close to its headquarters, will be used for dismantling end-of-life Renault Trucks vehicles.

The 'T Robust 13L' is a revamped and reconditioned T series truck with a new engine and an aesthetic update.

Renault Trucks is pursuing a sustainability strategy that involves extending the life cycle of trucks through a circular economy of reconditioning, repurposing, and recycling of vehicles and components.
