Piedmont Lithium Inc. has been selected for a $141.7 million
grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to support the
construction of a lithium project in Etowah, Tenn.
The company, which develops lithium resources used for the U.S.
electric-vehicle supply chain, said Wednesday that its $600 million
project is meant to expand the U.S. supply of lithium hydroxide by
30,000 metric tons per year. That is a key component in long-range,
high-energy EV batteries.
The grant represents one of the first set of projects funded by
President Joe Biden's infrastructure law aimed at expanding
domestic manufacturing of batteries for EVs and the electrical
grid.
Piedmont said it will be able to negotiate specific terms of the
grant, including timing and co-funding.
