“The significant cost share from the U.S. government demonstrates their continued support for investing in secure and sustainable supply chains of domestic lithium production,” said Standard Lithium CEO David Park in the press release. “This decision by the Department of Energy validates the caliber of the project we are building through our derisked approach to project development, strong partnerships, methodical testing and purpose-built processes tailored to meet the specific demands of large-scale lithium production in the Smackover Formation. Moreover, it reflects the incredibly talented and dedicated team we have built to execute this vision and, most importantly, the relationships we have built in our community and across the state to ensure this is a win for Arkansas.”
