Aurubis is a leading global supplier of non-ferrous metals and the world leader in copper recycling.

Summary of recommendations - The Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) is the main EU regulatory instrument dedicated to emissions from industrial installations and related processes. The assessment of coherence with circular economy and climate neutrality set out in the EU Green Deal should not compromise the IED's key objective.

Aurubis supports the development of a robust, harmonised methodology for calculating and verifying recycled content in batteries. Our main comments relate to two aspects: 1. Limiting recycled content of lead to waste. The current definition of recycled content for lead restricted to materials recovered from waste does not fully reflect how modern industrial circularity operates.
