From powering electric vehicles to storing solar and wind energy, lithium plays a critical role in the transition to a greener world. So it’s not surprising demand for Lithium-Iron-Phosphate (LFP) batteries is exploding – as are the market values of its key publicly traded producers.

With energy and food prices still high and weather-related calamities occurring far too often, everyone from companies to consumers is looking for greener alternatives across the board. Electric vehicles have driven a lot of the demand, but lithium is also used in storing captured wind and solar for the power grid and residential solar power systems.
