The US setting an example for the EU on how to build out a domestic supply chain with aggressive finance. This, despite Thacker Pass being opposed by environmental and tribal groups - sounds familiar? Almost like every single one of these projects have that supposed issue.

As things get more dire for Western countries, we should hopefully see these massive loans increase in size. If the largest lithium deposit in the US gets this level of financial support, is it within the realm of possibility that we see similar assistance to the largest graphite deposit in the EU (with anode tech already added on)? Yes, this level of funding for graphite seems unlikely right now. It is the ugly, disrespected duckling currently. How does that perception change with projected shortages starting in 2025 and more and more scrutiny toward dirty Chinese synthetic? Maybe we'll see the EU try and match these massive IRA numbers once the NZIA comes into play.
