The Wyoming Rock Springs Uplift could potentially store 14 to 17 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), according to results from a Department of Energy-sponsored study. For every 1 million metric tons of CO 2 stored, approximately 250 metric tons of lithium carbonate, with an approximate market value of $1.6

Many experts have set a target of reducing CO2 levels in half by 2030 , and they see a reliance on EVs as a key part of this. And big box stores like Walmart aren’t the only business that can benefit from this type of forward-thinking. Where It’s Happening The shift toward a more balanced electric vehicle infrastructure is happening.
