Powersafe has been expanding its reverse logistics efforts through the Ecosafe program, which integrates the manufacturing, collection, and environmentally sound disposal of end-of-life batteries. The initiative follows CONAMA Resolution 401/08 and IBAMA guidelines, and also supports research on national lithium recycling. The program connects clients and technical partners in a structured battery return flow, prioritizing requalification and recycling. The proposal gains relevance as the demand for energy solutions with traceability and environmental compliance throughout the supply chain grows.
In this context, the company executed a project with one of the world's largest data centers, delivering and commissioning 4.320 Getpower GP-PLX line pure lead-acid batteries, developed for high discharge rates. The replacement guaranteed performance gains of over 50% and extended lifespan, with an investment 75% lower than the previous technology.
The project also included the reverse logistics of 200 tons of unusable batteries, sent for recycling in accordance with legal requirements. For the company, the action demonstrates that operational efficiency and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.
“We have shown that it is possible to deliver high performance while ensuring responsible disposal and recycling, contributing to a sustainable energy transition,” says André Ribeiro, operations and renewables manager at Powersafe.
The company states that circular practices are becoming a competitive differentiator in the energy storage sector. According to Ribeiro, clients value suppliers that incorporate ESG criteria throughout the supply chain.
