2. Oxy and BHE Renewables partner on lithium<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/h1>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOccidental and BHE Renewables are partnering<\/strong><\/a> on a new project, TerraLithium\u2019s Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE), to extract and commercially produce high-purity lithium compounds from geothermal brine in Southern California.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat\u2019s clear:<\/strong> Demand for lithium batteries is projected to increase tenfold between 2020 to 2030, in line with battery demand growth. That means we need a lot of lithium.<\/strong> The United States has some of the largest lithium deposits in the world. The DOE highlights<\/strong><\/a> the U.S. domestic potential of 600,000 tons, however, it\u2019s still in the ground. Instead, we currently import approximately 3,400 metric tons<\/strong><\/a>.

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tClearPath\u2019s Nick Lombardo joined a board meeting of the Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to propose ideas to enhance and streamline their energy financing capabilities.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat\u2019s clear:<\/strong> America\u2019s competitors are bringing enormous resources to dominate global energy markets, which requires U.S. trade and development financing to be more agile and strategic. With the right policies in place, the future of energy and climate is bright at home and abroad.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Capturing carbon emissions and utilizing it to produce valuable services and products \u2013 like chemicals, fertilizers and building materials.<\/li>\n
  • Carbon utilization pathways which can repurpose approximately seven billion metric tons of CO2 per year by 2030.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat\u2019s clear: <\/strong>Support for a wide range of carbon utilization strategies is an essential piece of the puzzle \u2013 to help us reduce global emissions while keeping all clean and affordable energy sources at the table and strengthening U.S. industrial supply chains.
