SK Battery Pays $31M

SK Battery agrees to pay $31M to settle Georgia recycling center fire case

Settled lawsuit is among two legal battles related to the July 2023 fire that was allegedly caused by improperly shipped battery cells from SK Battery America’s factory in Commerce.

An electric vehicle battery manufacturer that operates a North Georgia factory recently agreed to pay a $31 million settlement to a nearby recycling facility that caught fire and burned to the ground last year.

SK Battery America Inc. settled a lawsuit in late September with Metro Site recycling center in Commerce, which was destroyed in a July 2023 fire after investigators said it received lithium-ion battery scraps among a shipment of recyclables from the battery producer’s factory a few miles away.
