Pure Lithium CEO on Next-Generation Batteries

Pure Lithium aims to push the boundaries of energy storage with proprietary technology that unlocks lithium metal for the first time, disrupting both the lithium extraction and battery industries, CEO Emilie Bodoin said. The company makes a pure lithium metal anode directly from brine using its Brine-to-Battery process, producing what it says is a safer, affordable alternative to today’s lithium-ion cells. Bodoin joins Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Chemicals Analyst Sean Gilmartin on this episode of the Tech Disruptors podcast to explain why she calls the lithium metal anode the “holy grail” of energy storage, how its technology can improve quality and cut costs and what’s needed to build a North American battery supply chain.
