Lithium extraction with a carbon-free footprint
The need
Lithium extraction harms the soil and causes air contamination. It can also contaminate water sources used by humans and livestock and for crop irrigation. Extraction with a carbon-free footprint is urgently required.
The solution
Backed by a team of world-renowned experts in chemistry, engineering and geology, Vulcan Energie aims to produce the world’s first premium, battery-quality lithium chemicals with zero carbon footprint. It does so by harnessing renewable geothermal energy to drive lithium production without using evaporation ponds, mining or fossil fuels.
The value proposition
- A world-first Zero Carbon Lithium™ business.
- Aims to decarbonise the transition to electric mobility.
- For use in electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy businesses.
