Lithium Symposium & GREENPEG Workshop

Lithium as a battery metal is becoming increasingly important in the global energy transition for mobile and stationary storage.

The European Union has significant deposits of economic value. However, most of these are still in the exploration phase; only one deposit is being mined, but not for the use of lithium as a battery metal.

This means that the EU is facing major challenges with regard to its ambition to significantly increase its level of self-sufficiency in the coming years.

Together with GeoSphere Austria, the newly founded Federal Institute for Geology, Geophysics, Climatology and Meteorology, the EU research project GREENPEG and EuroGeoSurveys are holding a symposium and workshop in Vienna on April 22-23, 2024, to explore the state of knowledge we have gained, where the industry and geological services of the EU Member States have been involved so far and which framework conditions for the valorization of deposits in Europe promote and restrict them.

The event is free of charge.
