5 FAQs about [Port Louis lithium battery energy storage project]
Does ESM offer a lithium industry training program?
ESM, along with Imperial Valley College and other industry partners, created a Lithium Industry Training Program (LIFT), which includes a one-year certificate program designed to equip the non-degree-seeking local workforce with the skills and knowledge necessary for excelling in the geothermal energy and mineral extraction industries.
How much lithium will ATLIS produce a year?
The facility is expected to produce up to 20,000 metric tons of lithium hydroxide annually, enough for approximately 52 GWh of lithium-ion batteries per year. ATLiS submitted its application to LPO in May 2023.
What is direct lithium extraction (DLE)?
Today’s announcement reinforces the Department of Energy’s commitment to strengthening the nation’s manufacturing competitiveness and ensuring the country’s energy future is built by Americans, for Americans. The ATLiS facility will use a technology called direct lithium extraction (DLE) to recover lithium from Salton Sea geothermal brine.
Can DLE technology be used in lithium brine & clay?
DLE technologies are applicable in many lithium brine and clay resources across the United States, allowing economically competitive extraction where impurities or lower lithium concentrations would otherwise limit commercial opportunities.
What happens if lithium is removed from a brine?
After impurities are removed from the brine, the lithium will be separated out using the ILiAD™ DLE technology. The lithium-depleted brine will be returned to the geothermal plant for reinjection into the geothermal reservoir, and the lithium will be further purified, crystallized, and packaged into battery-grade material.
