Albemarle Announces Plans to Idle its Kemerton Lithium Hydroxide Processing Plant

게시됨: Feb 11, 2026 08:00
Albemarle Corporation announced that it will immediately place the remaining operating line (Train 1) of its Kemerton lithium hydroxide processing plant in Western Australia into care and maintenance. Previously, the company had placed Train 2 into care and maintenance in 2024 and suspended the expansion plans for Trains 3 and 4. The Kemerton plant processes spodumene from the Greenbushes mine, one of the world’s top lithium resources. It is expected to improve adjusted EBITDA starting in the second quarter of 2026, without impacting the projected 2026 production volumes. Albemarle will continue to meet lithium hydroxide customer demand through other production channels, and its mining interests in Australia remain unaffected and continue to be core components of the company’s strategy.
