Empowering the transition to a sustainable future with lithium while meeting the energy needs of a growing world.
Our lithium products, critical ingredients for lithium-based batteries, are supporting the build-out of renewable energy generation, efficient storage, and a stable energy ecosystem that can cleanly power the planet.
Powering the Power Sources
Energy storage systems are a critical component of a flexible and reliable grid that balances intermittent renewable energy sources with meeting the demands of homes, communities and businesses when and where needed. Albemarle’s material know-how and our ability to make battery materials strong, flexible and fire-safe, enable the transfer of all types of clean energy in a safer and more reliable, scalable and cost-effective way.
Structures with Style and Sustainability
From the glass in homes and offices to the materials in energy-conserving elevator technologies, Albemarle ingenuity is making the structures of today and tomorrow solid and smart. Energy efficient innovations allow for high function and high style with lower energy consumption.
Efficiency Across All Energy Sources
The global energy transition to a cleaner future requires maximizing the efficiency of all sources of energy. Albemarle’s deep expertise in clear brine completion fluids means that conventional energy extraction can be optimized for well productivity and safety of people and planet.
Balancing Supply and Demand
Powering our world with renewable energy will require a resilient and flexible electrical grid that can absorb excess energy during peak supply times and then distribute it during peak usage times. Battery energy storage systems provide the flexibility to harvest renewable energy when it is available, and to distribute it when it’s needed – maintaining a reliable flow that can meet both supply and demand.
