Our technologies accelerate progress
Our technologies accelerate progress
We are motivated by averting climate change, which we believe is an existential threat to humanity.
A critical part of the solution is transitioning our society to one powered by clean energy, derived from renewable sources. This endeavor will require a secure and abundant supply of minerals like lithium, nickel, and copper, which are in short supply today because of technical limitations. We focus on engineering new, innovative technologies and solutions to make these raw materials plentiful and accelerate the transition.
Our goal is to fulfill the promise of a world powered only by clean energy
We will have succeeded when the critical minerals we target are not the limiting factor in the transition away from fossil fuels.
What energizes us
We focus on the really big problems that demand significant new advances in technological understanding to solve.
We combine ingenuity and novel science to achieve our purpose of availing the elements critical for clean energy innovation.
Our solutions will always lead the way in sustainability, efficiency, and scalability.
The team behind alkaLi
alkaLi is a fully independent company, spun out from Gradiant—a different kind of water company—who have been disrupting the water industry for more than a decade, introducing successful, breakthrough innovation at an unprecedented pace.
At launch, alkaLi is led by a core group of experienced industry executives with deep knowledge of the technology stack and raw materials markets. This team is charged with launching EC2 for which we will supply battery-grade lithium from the world's most efficient, all-in-one lithium extraction process.
A search is ongoing to recruit the brightest minds to expand EC2 into other critical mineral markets.
