The refinery utilizes a sulphate-free, acid-free process with zero liquid discharge, heat recycling, and renewable energy integration to achieve an 80% reduction in carbon emissions. Its design processes various lithium-containing materials, producing high-purity battery-grade lithium chemicals suitable for next-generation EV batteries and energy storage systems.
High-purity battery-grade lithium chemicals for electric vehicle batteries and energy storage systems, meeting strict quality specifications for next-generation and high-performance applications.
In 2024, Green Lithium completed front-end engineering design and partnered with Metso, Worley, Zenito, and WSP for construction planning in 2025. An independent life cycle assessment validated its sustainability benefits. The project is supported by the UK Government’s Automotive Transformation Fund.
Green Lithium has raised a total of £14M. Prospedia Capital led a £2.6M seed round via the Enterprise Investment Scheme. Kemeny Capital invested £2M through EIS at a £50M pre-money valuation. Strategic backers include Trafigura and the UK Government’s Automotive Transformation Fund.
