Large pile of discarded electric vehicle batteries stacked in an open recycling yard, showing the growing EV waste problem.

China’s EV boom is now colliding with its battery afterlife, and the number driving the crackdown is more than 1.1 million U.S. tons of retired packs per year by 2030 as officials push digital tracking to stop illegal dismantling
