Lithium de France and Tenaris associate for geothermal and lithium challenge in Alsace, France (supply: Tenaris)
Tenaris can be supplying casings and tubing for the geothermal warmth and lithium extraction challenge of Lithium de France in Alsace, France.
Lithium de France, a French firm inside the Arverne Group specializing in renewable power manufacturing from underground sources, has signed an settlement with Tenaris for the provision of casing, tubing, and associated providers for the development of geothermal wells. These wells can be used for warmth distribution in Northern Alsace, France, in addition to for geothermal lithium manufacturing.
“This partnership unites the mission-driven Arverne Group with a strong European pipe producer akin to Tenaris. Their mixed experience and robust European focus will speed up the scalability of geothermal and lithium actions, contributing to the development of sustainable power options,” mentioned Guillaume Borrel, CEO of Lithium de France.
The Rhine valley, the place the geothermal tasks are concentrated, presents extremely favorable geological circumstances, akin to deep faults and lithium-rich granites. Lithium, extracted from geothermal waters, is a crucial useful resource for the transition to electrical automobiles and extra sustainable batteries.
Earlier this yr, Lithium de France had reported the completion of 3D seismic exploration campaigns within the Northern Alsace area, particularly inside the perimeters of the Unique Analysis Permits “Les Poteries” and “Strasbourg” held by its sister firm 2gré.
With a complete cumulative floor space of 310 sq. kilometers explored in simply over 2 years, and an funding of greater than 12 million euros, Lithium de France has strengthened its place as the primary French unbiased geothermal warmth and lithium operator to have explored such a big floor space in Northern Alsace.
“We’re happy that Lithium de France has chosen Tenaris because the provider of tubular services and products for this strategic challenge. This achievement was made attainable by our robust native presence, in depth manufacturing capabilities in Europe, complete technical assist and providers, and huge expertise in geothermal improvement,” highlighted Simone Malesani, Industrial Gross sales Senior Supervisor Continental Europe at Tenaris.
This challenge marks one other step in Tenaris’s contribution to the power transition.
