Description

Tianqi Lithium Energy Australia (TLEA) is pioneering a new industry in Western Australia and paving the way for Australians to play a greater role in the decarbonisation of the world’s economy. Our fully automated Kwinana Lithium Hydroxide Refinery is the first of its kind in Australia and one of the biggest and most advanced lithium processing plants in the world.

In building the Kwinana Refinery, we have brought downstream processing of lithium to Australia. In doing so we are adding value to Australia’s minerals, providing opportunities for Australians to develop new skills in an industry at the forefront of the decarbonisation of the world’s economy, and we are leading the way for Australia to play an even larger role in the battery supply chain.

The first of our production trains at Kwinana was completed in 2022. A second train is already partially constructed, and there are plans in the pipeline for trains 3 and 4, each with a production capacity of 24,000 tonnes of lithium hydroxide per year - all produced using spodumene mined and concentrated in Western Australia. The lithium hydroxide products from these plans will be exported to Europe and Asia.
