A sponge-like material could solve the challenge of extracting #lithium from salty waters called brines, giving the U.S. a reliable domestic source. The highly reusable sponge quickly sucks up magnesium and other minerals, leaving purified lithium behind. #LBNLCriticalMinerals @BerkeleyLabETA bit.ly/4ytNkpe

"The pressure for utilities to stay on top of technologies is threefold: the ubiquity of customer-sited grid-edge technologies, mounting threats to reliability & resilience from storms and wildfires, and new large loads," says @berkeleylab's Pete Cappers. publicpower.org/periodical/a…
