PEC and Lithium Ark participate in the Lithium Forum 2026: innovation and sustainable development for the industry
The meeting brought together industry stakeholders to address the challenges and opportunities that will shape the future of lithium in Chile and the region.
On September 10, 2026, representatives from PEC and Lithium Ark participated in the Lithium Forum 2026, an opportunity to meet and reflect on the main challenges and opportunities of the lithium industry.
The event provided an opportunity to share perspectives on the future of the sector, focusing on issues such as technological innovation, legal certainty, attracting investment, and the sustainable development of projects related to this strategic resource.
Innovation and new extraction technologies
One of the relevant topics addressed during the meeting was the development of new lithium extraction technologies, including Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE).
These technologies are part of the evolution of the industry and open up opportunities to optimize processes, drive innovation and advance solutions that respond to the technical and productive challenges of the sector.
The exchange of knowledge between companies, specialists and industry actors is fundamental to identifying opportunities for collaboration and contributing to the development of a more innovative lithium value chain.
Legal certainty and attracting investment
Another key topic of discussion was the importance of creating conditions that allow progress in the viability and development of lithium projects in Chile and the region.
Legal certainty, regulatory clarity, and the attraction of investment are key aspects for promoting long-term initiatives, fostering collaboration among different actors, and strengthening the development of the industry.
These elements are part of the challenges the sector faces on its path towards greater participation in the global energy transition.
Sustainability, water management and social value
Sustainable development also played a central role within the forum's themes.
Responsible water resource management, the incorporation of environmental criteria, and the generation of social value are essential aspects for moving towards a lithium industry that considers both its production challenges and its relationship with territories and communities.
In this context, innovation and sustainability represent opportunities to develop solutions that contribute to a more responsible industry, better prepared for the needs of the future.
PEC and Lithium Ark's commitment to the future of lithium
At PEC and Lithium Ark, we reaffirm our commitment to actively participate in the lithium value chain, contributing to the development and scaling up of sustainable solutions for the global energy transition.
Participation in events such as the Lithium Forum 2026 allows us to strengthen ties, share experiences and learn firsthand about the trends, challenges and opportunities that are shaping the future of this industry.
We thank the organizers of the meeting and all the colleagues in the sector with whom we shared reflections, challenges and opportunities during this important day.
We continue to move towards a future of innovation, collaboration and sustainable development for the lithium industry.
