Tees Valley Lithium Opens Supplier Registration for UK’s Flagship Lithium Refinery
Tees Valley Lithium (TVL) has launched its Supplier Expression of Interest (EOI) process as the company continues to progress its Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) study for the UK’s first large-scale lithium hydroxide refinery.
The new Supplier EOI Portal provides an opportunity for businesses of all sizes to register their interest in supporting the project’s delivery, construction, and future operations. Companies are invited to select all relevant project categories and services they can offer – from civil engineering and fabrication to logistics, maintenance, and specialist chemical services.
Once registrations are received, the TVL team will review submissions and issue Pre-Qualification Questionnaires (PQQs) to suitable suppliers. This process will help build a strong and diverse local supply chain to support the refinery as it moves towards its Final Investment Decision (FID) in early 2026.
Pauline Sumner, Project Procurement of Tees Valley Lithium, said:
“This is an exciting time for Tees Valley Lithium and the broader Teesside region. We’re calling on suppliers, both established industry players and local SMEs, to register their interest and become part of this landmark project for the UK battery materials industry.”
