Customer Success Story

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) shows Talga's flagship battery anode product, Talnode®-C, is world’s greenest graphite anode

Summary

Hitachi Energy conducted a Life Cycle Assesment to quantify the cradle-to-gate1 life cycle environmental impact of Talnode®-C production according to ISO 14040:2006 and ISO 14044:2006 standards, whilst following the German Association of the Automotive Industry principles for data collection. 

Cradle-to-gate is an assessment of a partial product life cycle from resource extraction (cradle) to the factory gate (i.e., before it is transported to the consumer)

Customer Highlights
