With electric vehicle (EV) sales surging across Europe, Swedish battery manufacturer Northvolt announced April 13 its intent, together with Lisbon-based multinational energy conglomerate Galp Energia, to construct a massive lithium conversion plant on Portugal’s southern coast.
The construction of Aurora as one of Europeʼs largest lithium refineries by Galp and Northvolt in Portugal has been postponed.
As part of the agreement, Northvolt will secure an offtake for up to 50% of the plant’s capacity for use in its battery manufacturing. The JV partners are unwavering on driving the highest standards of sustainability, notably in the extraction and concentration of spodumene, the processing of lithium hydroxide, as well as in all related processes.
The construction of one of Europeʼs largest lithium refineries in Portugal has been postponed. Due to its complexity and uncertainties regarding financing, the 50:50-joint-venture Aurora project by Portuguese oil company Galp and Swedish battery manufacturer Northvolt will be delayed.
The companies believe the area, home to 300,000 and 270,000 tons of respective lithium reserves in Spain and Portugal, offers the necessary tools to extract, concentrate, and convert the mineral with a limited footprint.
The plant will be able to deliver lithium hydroxide sufficient for 50 GWh of battery production per year (sufficient for approximately 700,000 electric vehicles). As part of the agreement, Northvolt will secure an offtake for up to 50% of the plant’s capacity for use in its battery manufacturing.
