Libra Group Announces Sale of Stake in GreenMet; Unveils New U.S. Investment in Sustainable Lithium
The group has reinvested proceeds into a responsible lithium extraction and processing project in Texas and Arkansas for use in the U.S.
[November 4, 2025] — Libra Group, a global business group whose subsidiaries have assets and operations in nearly 60 countries, today announced the sale of its non-controlling stake in GreenMet, a company founded in 2022 to advance North America’s supply of responsibly sourced critical minerals. Following the sale, Libra Group has reinvested the proceeds into a sustainable lithium extraction and processing project based in Texas and Arkansas.
“Libra Group remains deeply committed to supporting North America’s access to critical minerals and rare earths,” said Manos Kouligkas, Chief Executive Officer of Libra Group. “This reinvestment reflects our focus on advancing indispensable resources through responsible partnerships. Sustainable critical mineral sourcing aligns with our Group’s ethos and clean energy strategy, which includes a pipeline of more than 10 GW of solar, wind, and battery storage projects globally. We are pleased to contribute to enhancing energy security through collaborative, value-driven investments.”
Often called the “white gold” of the energy transition, lithium is the most critical component in lithium-ion batteries used in electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage systems. Integrating renewable sources like wind and solar is essential.
“Critical minerals are a vital link between industrial innovation and the clean energy transition,” said Camilo Patrignani, Head of Infrastructure at Libra Group. “Through this investment and others to come, we aim to strengthen domestic capacity and ensure sustainable access to the materials shaping the future of the global economy. We look forward to continued collaborations that support long-term U.S. energy security.”
Libra Group plans to expand its dedicated team focused on critical mineral investments in 2026 to further accelerate its work in this strategic sector.
