KIT team develops minimally invasive technology to mine lithium in geothermal plants

Green Car Congress

JULY 13, 2020

The plan is to extract lithium using a minimally invasive process from the deep waters in geothermal plants of the Upper Rhine Graben—an area that has particularly favorable geological conditions for geothermal heat development. If we consistently use this potential, we could cover a considerable part of the demand in Germany.
