Will Malaysia be ready for 900,000 EV batteries by 2050?

Question

## Malaysia's Preparedness for Projected EV Battery Waste by 2050 Remains Uncertain

Accepted Answer

Malaysia is currently implementing regulatory frameworks and industry initiatives aimed at managing the growing volume of electric vehicle (EV) batteries. Projections indicate that nearly 900,000 EV batteries may require disposal or recycling by 2050, with approximately 40,000 by 2030, rising to 330,000 by 2040. While the country has established Authorised Automotive Treatment Facilities (AATF) and adheres to the Scheduled Waste SW103 protocol for hazardous materials, the actual capacity and effectiveness of these systems to handle the projected scale of waste by 2050 are not yet definitively established.
