Direct Lithium Extraction: Advancing Scalable, Responsible Lithium Production
Empower is among the first companies to offer a true end-to-end lithium solution, integrating both concentration and refining processes within a single system.
Global demand for lithium continues to accelerate as electrification, energy storage, and data infrastructure expand worldwide. At the same time, traditional lithium production methods face growing challenges related to water usage, land disruption, and long development timelines. Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) represents a critical evolution in how lithium resources can be responsibly developed at scale.
Empower’s platform is built around the advancement and deployment of DLE technology designed to selectively extract lithium from brine with high efficiency while significantly reducing environmental impact. Unlike conventional evaporation-based methods, DLE systems enable faster production cycles, improved recovery rates, and lower surface disturbance, making them well suited for deployment across diverse geographies.
By integrating extraction technology with in-house engineering, manufacturing, and operational capabilities, Empower is able to move projects from validation to deployment with greater certainty and control. This vertically integrated approach reduces execution risk, accelerates timelines, and enables repeatable system deployment across multiple projects.
As lithium markets evolve, scalable and responsible production methods will play an increasingly central role in securing long-term supply. Empower remains focused on advancing DLE solutions that align technical performance with environmental stewardship and commercial viability.
