Lithium is a key critical mineral supporting the global energy transition, and there is enormous potential for the lithium sector to underpin a globally significant value adding critical minerals processing industry in Western Australia.
Guidelines have been developed for:
- Temporary assistance with fees and charges in relation to water, electricity and land to support lithium hydroxide processing operations.
- Temporary assistance with government fees and charges in relation to ports and mining tenements to support lithium mining operations in the ‘ramp up’ phase of development.
Please note:
- The Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation (JTSI) is responsible for administering the Program on behalf of the State.
- These Guidelines should be read in conjunction with any funding announcements or updates from the State.
- These Guidelines and any discussions with State officers are for information purposes only and do not constitute advice.
- These Guidelines may be updated, varied or revoked at any time.
- Applicants should be aware that receipt of financial assistance may be publicly disclosed. The Program will be subject to a review 12 months following implementation.
