Lithium is essential to electric vehicles, grid infrastructure, energy storage, and mobile devices. Lithium demand is forecast to increase from 1.3 million metric tonnes (MMt LCE) in 2024 to 3.3 MMt by 2030.1
New production techniques like direct lithium extraction could dramatically reduce energy and water use, potentially delivering a host of environmental and operational benefits.2
LIT invests in companies throughout the lithium cycle, including mining, refinement and battery production, cutting across traditional sector and geographic definitions.
