NGS is composed of complementary technological Work Packages (WP), with the capacity to autonomously generate Products, Processes, or Services (PPS) for the international market, incorporating innovative technologies that can increase the value over the life of the project. Individually, each WP can operate independently in a specific area of the value chain. However, together they interconnect and build a meaningful circular chain.  Cerena and CQE are involved in the work package 5- Recycling and 2^nd life. This WP includes lines of action related to the recycling of battery materials and components, battery disassembly and second life batteries.
