The City of Boulder is partnering with Fermata Energy to test the ability to reduce the city’s building energy costs with an innovative pilot at the North Boulder Recreation Center. The city and Fermata Energy have installed a charging station that enables two-way electricity: from the building to the car and from the car back to the building. This vehicle-to-building (V2B) technology can provide the city new ways to manage its energy load, and to reduce energy costs.

With demand expected to rise significantly in the coming decade on the back of electric vehicle sales and energy storage systems implementation, an increase in lithium production is inevitable. Roskill’s CO 2 output and water consumption intensity analysis, detailed in the soon to be published Lithium Sustainability Monitor , provides an in-depth account of the sustainability of lithium production on an asset-by-asset basis, both in 2020 and over the next decade.
