Sustainability

Our purpose for our planet, our people, and our communities

At Piedmont Lithium, we believe that supporting the electric vehicle and battery markets with much-needed lithium resources can be done through sustainable and technically-advanced operations. With a diversified portfolio of spodumene resources, we plan to produce lithium hydroxide from spodumene concentrate by leveraging a range of innovative processes for a more environmentally-responsible footprint.

Currently, we are developing four key projects – the Quebec Projects, the Ghana Project, Tennessee Lithium, and Carolina Lithium – on a timeline that positions us to help bring to life a more robust production of lithium hydroxide in the United States and North America..

We are fortunate to have the opportunity to make a sustainable impact through the diligent design and implementation of our lithium projects. Although both Tennessee Lithium and Carolina Lithium are still in the development phases, we are committed to sharing as much information as possible on the potential impact of our operational footprint.

See how we are designing our Carolina Lithium and Tennessee Lithium projects for our people, our planet, and our communities.

For our planet, we strive to be responsible stewards of our environment as we develop our business to support the vital pathway for the transition to clean energy.
