Lithium carbonate from Thacker Pass will be used in GM’s proprietary Ultium battery cells. GM has secured all the battery material we need to build more than 1 million EVs annually in North America in 2025 and our future production will increasingly draw from domestic resources like the site in Nevada we’re developing with Lithium Americas.
