Insheim Geothermal Power Station / Geothermiekraftwerk Insheim

With its world's first Zero Carbon Lithium TM electric vehicle battery plant and renewable energy processes, Vulcan Energy plans to transition to decarbonized electric mobility.

Strengthened by a team of world-renowned experts in chemistry, engineering and geology, we plan to produce the world's first, high-quality, battery-grade lithium compounds with zero carbon footprint by using renewable geothermal energy to boost lithium production without using evaporation ponds, mining or fossil fuels.

We use our combined deep geothermal and lithium brine source, the largest lithium resource in Europe in the Upper Rhine Valley in Germany.

Our raw material sources are sufficient to supply Europe's lithium needs for years to come and to guarantee the transition to electric vehicles with the minimal carbon footprint.

Europe is the fastest growing lithium compound market in the world, but without regional supply.

The EU's problems with lithium production for the electric vehicle market - on the one hand a high CO2 footprint and water consumption, on the other hand the complete dependence on imports from abroad - are tackled and solved by us.
