Lithium in SK, Part 2: Saskatchewan government launches lithium incentives
Saskatchewan has a new opportunity to be part of the electrification revolution, but how will help out the fledgling lithium industry? The same way it is helping helium, oil and gas.
On Nov. 7, Minister of Energy and Resources Jim Reiter announced Saskatchewan would be extending its go-to incentive programs to lithium. The programs are the Oil and Gas Processing Investment Incentive (OGPII) and Saskatchewan Petroleum Innovation Incentive (SPII).
And, apparently, they work, as industry leader Prairie Lithium has already successfully taken advantage of SPII.
Lithium in SK Part 1: As the race for lithium takes off, Saskatchewan is seeing the dawn of a new industry
If you’re reading this on your phone, tablet or laptop, it is being powered by a lithium battery. If you plan on ever owning an electric vehicle, it is almost certainly going to use a lithium battery, and a very large, heavy one at that. But actually, since it’s made of lithium, it will be lighter than any other battery commercially viable at this time.
And that’s why lithium is so important. And Saskatchewan is poised to play a major role.
This is going to be the most in-depth coverage regarding the development of Lithium in this province. There’s going to be well over a dozen stories. Once you’ve read them all, you’ll have a really good idea of just what exactly is going on in the race for lithium.
Climate activists throw liquid at Klimt painting in Vienna
BERLIN (AP) — Climate activists in Austria on Tuesday attacked a famous painting by artist Gustav Klimt with a black, oily liquid and one then glued himself to glass protecting the painting’s frame.
Members of the group Last Generation Austria tweeted they had targeted the 1915 painting “Death and Life” at the Leopold Museum in Vienna to protest their government’s use of fossil energies.
After throwing the liquid on the painting, which wasn’t damaged, one activist was pushed away by a museum guard while another glued his hand to the glass over the painting’s frame.
