Definitely. NiMH batteries aren't nearly as easily recyclable as the Li-Ion the Volt uses...there's not a ton you can do with them after the fact.

The beauty of the 'revitalizing' process is that the battery probably won't need to be removed from the car. Ideally, that should cause maintenance costs down the road to drop dramatically! (I can't find the article I read about it at the moment....)
