EMVC–Jupiter Lithium Deal to Transform Nigeria’s Clean Mobility Landscape
By Joel Ajayi
Abuja, Nigeria – Electric Motor Vehicle Company (EMVC), Nigeria’s leading indigenous electric vehicle manufacturer, has announced a landmark strategic partnership with Jupiter Lithium Limited, a UK-based company developing one of Nigeria’s most significant lithium mining projects.
The five-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) establishes a comprehensive framework for the development of Nigeria’s first fully integrated lithium-to-electric vehicle supply chain.
This transformative collaboration combines EMVC’s expertise in sustainable mobility solutions with Jupiter’s extensive lithium mining operations, spanning over 420 square kilometres in Kaduna State. The partnership aims to position Nigeria at the forefront of the global clean energy economy.
“This partnership marks a pivotal moment in Nigeria’s transition to sustainable transportation,” said Prince Mustapha Audu, Chairman of EMVC.
“By working with Jupiter to develop a complete domestic supply chain—from lithium extraction to EV production—we’re not just building cars; we’re building Nigeria’s future as a leader in clean mobility technology.”
Dr. Stephen Davis, Chairman of Jupiter Lithium Limited, underscored the importance of the collaboration:
“Our partnership with EMVC exemplifies how international expertise can work hand-in-hand with Nigerian innovation to unlock the country’s vast mineral wealth. This collaboration will help establish Nigeria as a key player in the global lithium value chain while supporting the country’s ambitious sustainability goals.”
Transforming Nigeria’s Economic LandscapeThe partnership addresses a major gap in the global lithium supply chain by linking Jupiter’s high-grade SC6 spodumene concentrate production with EMVC’s EV manufacturing capabilities.
Key areas of focus include: Battery-Grade Chemical Production, Lithium Battery Manufacturing Facilities and Integration of Locally Produced Lithium Batteries into EMVC’s EV product line.
Strategic National Benefits: Economic Diversification: Reduces dependence on oil and gas by fostering advanced manufacturing
Job Creation: Employment opportunities across mining, chemical processing, and manufacturing.
Energy Security: Boosts domestic battery production to support renewable energy growth
Improved Trade Balance: Cuts reliance on imported EV components. Sustainability: Supports Nigeria’s climate commitments through clean transportation initiatives
Integrated Lithium Supply Chain: Jupiter’s lithium resources are extracted from mining operations managed by Range Mining Limited and Basin Mining Limited across multiple tenements in Southern Kaduna State.
