This designation will enhance the competitiveness for federal, state, and local funding, as well as Lithium Valley and clean energy development investment opportunities in the Eastern Riverside County and Imperial County communities. This legislation builds upon recommendations made by the Lithium Valley Commission (AB 1657, Garcia). The Imperial County, Eastern Coachella Valley, and Palo Verde areas that would be included in this new economic zone share distinct economic demographics, challenges, and significant potential for solar, wind, geothermal, and direct lithium development.
“As the global demand for lithium continues to grow and California works to achieve our zero-emission vehicle goals, this legislation will strengthen Lithium Valley economic development, create jobs, and attract the resources we need to build out the overall energy infrastructure outlined in our community’s Lithium Valley vision. After years of laying the groundwork, we must seize this game-changing opportunity to uplift our economically underserved region, improve the quality of life for residents, and solidify our district as a global leader in this emerging energy industry,” said Assemblymember Eduardo Garcia.
