Saguenay, Quebec – Newsfile Corp. – October 17, 2025 – First Phosphate Corp. (CSE: PHOS) (OTCQX: FRSPF) (FSE: KD0) (“First Phosphate” or the “Company“) provides its perspective on recent volume increases and price volatility in the trading of its common shares.
On October 9, 2025, China’s Ministry of Commerce announced broad new unilateral export controls on rare earth and other processed critical materials including lithium iron phosphate (“LFP”) cathode active material (“CAM”), and certain related equipment and technologies. Such restrictions, under Ministry of Commerce Notice No 55-62, are to come into effect as of November 8, 2025.
Following the announcement, the shares of First Phosphate and certain other publicly traded entities with interests or operations associated with the exploration, mining, processing and/or manufacture of materials and technologies subject to these export controls experienced large volume increases and price volatility.
If implemented, these export controls on LFP CAM are expected to impact various industries around the world that rely on such technologies and inputs including energy storage, AI data centers, robotics, mobility, defense and electric vehicles. LFP batteries represent a majority of all global electric battery production most of which is manufactured in China.
First Phosphate has been fully dedicated to onshoring the LFP battery supply chain in North America through its proposed development of mining and downstream processing of North American critical minerals.
The high-purity phosphoric acid and iron powder for these LFP 18650 battery cells was produced from rare igneous anorthosite rock extracted from the First Phosphate Bégin-Lamarche property in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region of Quebec, Canada.
First Phosphate’s recent white paper on Securing North American Phosphate Supply for LFP Cathode Materials recently received a “Met” Rating from the Defense Industrial Base Consortium which emphasized that “phosphate, particularly for use in LFP CAM, is essential to national defense. Demand for LFP batteries is likely to continue to increase and having a domestic source greatly reduces dependency on China and their control over the LFP market.” Please see: https://firstphosphate.com/dibc
Given these recent developments, First Phosphate looks to accelerate its mine-to-market LFP battery supply chain strategy for North America in the markets of energy storage, data centers, robotics, mobility, defense and electric vehicles.
The scientific and technical information contained in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Gilles Laverdière, P.Geo. Mr. Laverdière is Chief Geologist of First Phosphate and a Qualified Person as defined under National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”).
About First Phosphate Corp
First Phosphate (CSE: PHOS) (OTCQX: FRSPF) (FSE: KD0) is a mineral development and cleantech company dedicated to building and onshoring a vertically integrated mine-to-market LFP battery supply chain for North America. Target markets include energy storage, data centers, robotics, mobility and defense.
First Phosphate’s flagship Bégin-Lamarche Property in Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec, Canada is a North American rare igneous phosphate resource yielding high-purity phosphate with minimal impurities.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The ASEAN Energy Business Forum (AEBF-25) was held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia from October 15 to 17, with the theme of “Powering ASEAN: Bridging Boundaries, Building Prosperity.” Focusing on regional energy interconnection, clean transition, investment and financing, and technology implementation, the forum attracted more than 1,500 representatives, including energy ministers, policymakers, industry organizations, and business leaders from the ten ASEAN countries. As a key participant, Huawei Digital Power Asia Pacific showcased high-quality all-scenario Smart PV+ESS solutions and innovations, and deeply engaged with industry customers and partners in ASEAN countries, underscoring its commitment to helping drive the zero-carbon transformation of ASEAN.
Huawei Digital Power Helps ASEAN Achieve Zero-Carbon Transformation with All-Scenario Grid Forming Technologies
Xia Hesheng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power and President of Huawei Digital Power Strategy & Marketing Dept, delivered a keynote speech on October 15, titled “Enabling the ASEAN Power Grid: The Critical Role of Grid-Forming Technologies for Cross Border Power Trading”. He mentioned that grid interconnection in the ASEAN region and cross-border transmission of renewable energy are key to achieving carbon neutrality. Notably, the stable transmission and consumption of electricity for power grids with a high proportion of renewable energy are crucial. Over the past decade or more, Huawei Digital Power has led the PV+ESS industry from grid following to grid forming. Introducing the technical capabilities of all-scenario grid forming, high reliability, and high safety, Huawei Digital Power has established a high-quality benchmark in the industry. In the world’s first GWh-level microgrid project, grid forming technologies power The Red Sea destination, a regenerative tourism megaproject in Saudi Arabia that uses 100% green energy. In Cambodia’s first 1 GWh grid forming energy storage project, Huawei Digital Power’s solution was certified by TÜV SÜD. In the future, Huawei Digital Power will continue to work with customers and partners in ASEAN countries to build a benchmark of energy transformation with advanced grid forming technologies and commitment to high-quality.
Chen Xieming, Huawei Digital Power Global Power Grid Expert, mentioned in the roundtable discussion themed “Strengthening ASEAN Power Grid Resilience: Policy and Investment Strategies for Energy Security and Renewable Integration” that, unified regional grid standards need to be established to lay a solid foundation for grid safety, so as to promote ASEAN interconnection. Especially in energy systems with a high proportion of renewables, grid forming technology standards are the key to safeguarding regional grid resilience.
Huawei Digital Power Helps ASEAN Achieve Zero-Carbon Transformation with All-Scenario Grid Forming Technologies
Chong Chern Peng, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power Malaysia Business, emphasized Malaysia’s strategic position in the ASEAN power grid during the roundtable discussion of “CEO & Leaders Thoughts with Boston Consulting Group “. As the hub of regional energy interconnection, Malaysia has carried out key energy cooperation with neighboring countries such as Thailand and Singapore through cross-border power transactions. To realize the ASEAN power grid vision, the power grids of each country must be resilient and dynamic. For this reason, grid forming technologies are indispensable. Huawei Digital Power’s continuous investment in PV+ESS grid forming is helping build a more resilient power grid system that adapts to the low-carbon renewable future.
Huawei Digital Power Helps ASEAN Achieve Zero-Carbon Transformation with All-Scenario Grid Forming Technologies
In the “Ministers and CEOs Dialogue”, Xia Hesheng pointed out that the key to promoting the prosperity of the energy economy in ASEAN is to build stable and high-quality energy infrastructure and formulate relevant policy guidelines and standards. Huawei Digital Power uses all-scenario grid forming solutions to enhance the short-circuit level, inertia, and black start capabilities of the power grid. In The Red Sea destination, Saudi Arabia, thousands of PCSs are connected in parallel in off-grid mode and a black start can be implemented in minutes. Huawei Digital Power has established an ESS safety protection system from cells to grids. The smart string architecture and strict quality control help lay a solid foundation for product safety. Quality management covering the entire lifecycle from R&D to service ensures long-term reliable operation of the system. For example, the Golmud project in Qinghai has maintained a failure rate of less than 0.5% over 13 years of stable operation. Huawei Digital Power is committed to supporting ASEAN in developing the PV+ESS industry into a global benchmark for energy transformation, powered by end-to-end high-quality products and technologies.
ASEAN’s green future is rooted in stable and efficient energy. At the AEBF-25, Huawei Digital Power not only showcased its industry-leading grid forming technologies and system-level strength, but also underscored its commitment to building a green, smart, and sustainable future. Moving forward, Huawei Digital Power will double down on its investment in research and development, and deepen cooperation with local partners to jointly promote the transformation of ASEAN’s energy mix. We firmly believe that technology is the key to realizing a zero-carbon world. With its robust grid forming technologies, Huawei Digital Power will be a reliable companion on this journey.
