Livent will supply the lithium directly to the BMW Group’s battery cell manufacturers from 2022 on. By sourcing lithium from a second supplier, we are securing requirements for production of our current fifth generation of battery cells. The value of the multi-year contract will total around €285 million.

The Salton Sea geothermal field in California potentially holds enough lithium to meet all of the US’ domestic battery needs, with even enough left over to export some of it. Using various extraction techniques, lithium chloride can be extracted from the brine, then processed into other forms for battery production. Earlier post.).

However, many green technologies, such as electric vehicles and renewable power plants, depend on lithium-ion batteries, which require lithium. To mitigate the worst impacts of climate change, we must transition away from fossil fuels like petroleum and coal and toward clean energy generation and zero-emission transportation options.

While other commodities are floundering or completely collapsing in this market, lithium—the critical mineral in the emerging battery gigafactory war—is poised to explode, and going forward Nevada is emerging as the front line in this pending American lithium boom. Without lithium, there will be no battery gigafactories.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. We will own the battery. We will always own the batteries,&# said Mr. Thesen.
