Belgrade (AFP) – The European Union and Serbia signed a deal Friday to develop the supply of lithium seen as a crucial building block to achieve Europe's transition to a green economy. Issued on: 19/07/2024 - 05:19 Modified: 19/07/2024 - 16:21
The Serbian government said it aims to meet at least 20% of Europe’s lithium demand. For Europe's green transformation, the prospect of a huge lithium supply in the heart of the continent would be a huge relief. Most of the lithium Europe uses currently comes from Asia and South America.
Rio Tinto has said Serbia's lithium reserves in Loznica could produce an estimated 58,000 tonnes annually, enough for 1.1 million electric vehicles. During an interview with Germany's Handelsblatt ahead of the Belgrade summit, Vucic said conversations were ongoing with a range of European automakers including Mercedes, Volkswagen and Stellantis.
"Leave lithium and democracy to the Serbian people," said Savo Manojlovic, a leading organiser of the protests against the mine. Protestors also say the country is taking the biggest environmental risks with the mine for the sake of the EU's transition to a green economy.
Germany's Mercedes-Benz (MBGn.DE) is a potential customer of lithium from Serbia and would support bringing more of the battery value chain to Serbia, the company's chief executive Ola Kaellenius said in Belgrade on Friday. "They are building a very modern mine and we are a potential customer.
