Lithium project review

Lithium is crucial for the electrification of transport and global net-zero aspirations. Demand for lithium chemicals is set to grow further, and lithium has been identified as a critical mineral of strategic importance in countries with significant lithium-bearing natural resources and those with increasing demand. This insight seeks to assess the cost intensities of greenfield projects, identify projects with higher project risk relative to their peers, and provide a snapshot of project developments. It also looks at the policy landscape supporting, or impeding, project development.
