6 FAQs about [Congo Republic lfp energy storage]

What is the energy potential of the DRC?

What is the government's vision for power generation in Congo?

The government’s vision is to increase the service level to 32 percent by 2030. Lack of access to modern electricity services impairs the health, education, and income-generating potential of millions of Congolese people. Most power generation development is directed and funded by mining companies seeking to power their facilities.

Can the Democratic Republic of the Congo produce lithium-ion battery cathode precursor materials?

What is the energy storage and grids pledge for cop29?

The final text of the Energy Storage and Grids Pledge for COP29 recognises the essential role both play in the power sector’s decarbonisation, including facilitating the increased integration of renewable energy and providing stable and secure supply of electricity.

How much would a DRC plant cost?

This is three times cheaper than what a similar plant in the U.S. would cost. A similar plant in China and Poland would cost an estimated $112 million and $65 million, respectively. Precursor material produced at plants in the DRC could be cost competitive with material produced in China and Poland but with a lower environmental footprint.

How many people in DRC have electricity?

Despite millions of dollars of donor funding, according to the World Bank only 19 percent of the DRC’s 108 million people have access to electricity – about 41 percent in urban areas and 1 percent in rural areas. The government’s vision is to increase the service level to 32 percent by 2030.
