The clean energy transition is hindered by a critical limitation in the mineral supply chain essential for electric vehicles and batteries. Global lithium demand will increase by over 700% by 2040, while traditional mining is slow and environmentally damaging. However, lithium is abundant in water sources previously overlooked. Advancements in direct lithium extraction (DLE) allow recovery from sources like geothermal brines, efficiently and cleanly. While DLE remains in early stages, its effective technology can redefine critical mineral production, especially with integrated systems producing sustainable results from domestic reserves.
Advancements in direct lithium extraction (DLE) are now making it possible to recover lithium from unconventional sources-cleanly, efficiently, and at scale. DLE opens access to vast untapped U.S. domestic reserves.
By 2040, global demand for lithium alone is expected to surge more than 700%. Yet traditional mining remains slow, polluting, and geopolitically risky. We can't build a sustainable tomorrow on an unsustainable supply chain.
