Energizer was the first company to create disposable batteries from recycled cells, and now they have created rechargeable versions of those batteries. The company has introduced new Recharge AA and AAA batteries that take material from used power packs, including those from hybrid cars. At the moment, only 4 percent of the material that makes up these new batteries comes from used power packs, which is still a long way from Energizer’s goal of using 40 percent recycled material by 2025. It is, however, the first of many steps in the right direction and the batteries are currently the most environmentally friendly available on the market.
