First Phosphate enters into 3 party deal to produce LFP Cathode Active Material and Battery Cells
First Phosphate Corp CEO John Passalacqua, John Kem, President of American Battery Factory and CEO of Integrals Power Behnam Hormozi joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce an exciting partnership aimed at producing lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode active material (CAM) and LFP battery cells in North America.
This collaborative effort is designed to support American Battery Factory’s anticipated demand for up to 40,000 tonnes of locally sourced LFP CAM annually by 2028, ensuring a fully localized supply chain for LFP battery cell production in North America. The initiative, known as LFP Project America, has ambitions to eventually bring the entire production supply chain of LFP CAM, LFP battery cells, and storage devices for the battery storage sector to North America. Additionally, the companies plan to extend invitations to other suppliers to join the project group and contribute to this transformative initiative.
The first phase involves the successful completion of a pilot project for LFP Project America. Following this milestone, the three parties will collaborate on the establishment of a North American supply plant dedicated to providing LFP CAM to American Battery Factory.
First Phosphate Corp’s access to clean igneous anorthosite phosphate-bearing rock in Quebec, Canada, which it intends to refine into a substantial quantity of battery-grade purified phosphoric acid, plays a crucial role in supporting LFP Project America’s objectives.
This strategic partnership signifies a significant step towards ensuring a domestic and sustainable supply chain for critical components in the burgeoning lithium battery industry in North America. It underscores the commitment of these companies to advancing renewable energy and battery technology in the region while reducing reliance on imports.
