Advanced chemical conversion processes yielding battery-grade lithium hydroxide and carbonate from primary and recycled sources. Facilities incorporate sustainable practices to minimize carbon emissions, plan to integrate 50% recycled materials by 2030, and comply with EU regulations including the Critical Raw Materials Act.
High-purity battery-grade lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate produced at 40,000 tons annual capacity per facility, designed for use in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles and energy storage systems.
Secured a 27-hectare site in Le Havre, France in 2024 for its first refinery (production in 2028, 40,000 tpa), and partnered with Technip Energies for engineering studies of a German facility in Emden aiming to start operations in 2026.
Supported by French government agencies Ademe and Bpifrance; collaborating with Germany Trade & Invest. No private investors specified.
