Buenos Aires — Last week, Argentina’s President Alberto Fernández visited the first Argentine lithium cells and batteries manufacturing plant belonging to Y-TEC, a company that is part of state-owned energy giant YPF, and which will produce its first pilot models of lithium batteries in December, after taking delivery of components in October.
The plant will generate 15 megawatts per year, which means it will produce lithium batteries capable of powering 2500 households. The batteries are envisaged for use in rural areas. For example, there is already a Buenos Aires province-backed project to supply the Paulino-Berisso island, home to 70 families who are currently off the power grid.
In the case of lithium, Y-TEC signed a contract with American company Livent, which extracts the mineral in Catamarca and, for the first time, sold part of its production in Argentina. According to Salvarezza, for industrialization to grow in scale, part of the production ought to be sold on the local market.
These are some of the findings from a report prepared by the consulting firm Aleph Energy, led by Daniel Dreizzen, which analyzes the global lithium market while delving into Argentina in greater detail. These are the 41 companies of various characteristics that participate in the country’s 64 projects.
Four new projects will finally begin to churn out lithium in the weeks and months ahead, according to a yet-to-be released federal government time-line seen by Bloomberg News. That will almost double production capacity in Argentina, whose growth potential has long lured the attention of battery makers around the world.
Arcadium Lithium, the firm that resulted from the merger between Livent and Allkem, two of the three companies that were already producing lithium in Argentina, accounts for 13% of global production. Output has quadrupled in the last ten years, but is still attributable to only a few countries and projects. Another Argentine Unicorn on the Horizon?
