"FCAB (The Federal Consortium for Advanced Batteries) brings together federal agencies interested in ensuring a domestic supply of lithium batteries to accelerate the development of a resilient domestic industrial base FCAB is promoting a holistic approach covering the whole lithium based battery ecosystem, focusing on development of an equitable, sustainable supply chain, from raw-materials production to end-of-life recycling. For each stage of the supply chain, this blueprint identifies key actions that federal agencies can take to strengthen and bolster domestic performance, while progressing towards national goals for mitigating climate change and advancing social justice."
