Is lithium ion battery storage available in Chile?
While many projects are under development, lithium - ion battery storage is still limited. According to data from Acera, the Chilean Renewable Energy Association, there are only 64MW of battery storage capacity currently active, representing 0.2% of national capacity.
Is lithium a critical energy resource in Chile?
The global and regional significance of lithium as a critical energy resource is examined. The evolution of Chile's lithium industry is analyzed, emphasizing two recent key policy initiatives: the National Lithium Commission report and the newly launched national lithium strategy. The salient features of these initiatives are outlined.
Which Chilean centers are focusing on developing lithium technologies?
Another Chilean center focused on developing lithium technologies is the Advanced Mining Technology Center (AMTC), located at the University of Chile. Research has been focused on new sustainable technologies for lithium brine processing and direct LiOH production.
Is lithium mining profitable in Chile?
The high profitability of lithium mining and the fact that lithium resources are not eligible to be concessioned in Chile give rise to a mutually beneficial relationship between public and private-sector interests, including in the exploration phase.
Why should Chile invest in lithium?
In economic terms, lithium constitutes not only an opportunity to fairly generate public revenue streams through royalties and taxes, but also an opportunity to make progress on industrial development and technological innovation that will enable Chile to consolidate its position as a leading global lithium producer.
What is the legal status of lithium in Chile?
The legal status of lithium is an exception in Chile’s mining concession system. Through Law Decree No. 2,886 of , Chilean legislation reserved lithium for the State, rendering lithium reserves non-concessionable. This regulation is also enshrined in Law No. 18,097 of and the Mining Code of .
