    About this project

    Technik ohne Grenzen e.V. Aachen from Technik ohne Grenzen e.V. is responsible for this project
    Support us with our new project in Sierra Leone! Every year, around 50 million tons of electronic waste are generated. This includes old devices with still intact battery cells. How can these be recycled in a meaningful way? We, the Regional Group Aachen, are cooperating with the start-up "Light Salone Innovations", founded in Sierra Leone, to develop a battery recycling concept. The used batteries are assembled into new battery packs, which then serve as an energy source in combination with solar panels. The technical concept development and the prototype construction are the central tasks to guarantee a practical development cooperation. Every donation helps to realize our project and to give the batteries a second life.
