EV batteries

CATL is the biggest battery manufacturer in the world and has announced some remarkable advances. In my view we are on the cusp of a transport revolution leaving fossil fuel vehicles left in the Stone Age. 

Wake up USA, or you will be left far, far behind.

EV batteries - revolution about to happen?

It looks like the Chinese battery manufacturer CATL has over 50% of the market share in sodium based batteries and the price of these will fall dramatically in the next few years. The battery life is greater too by a factor of about 2. 

Whatever happens with solid-state batteries, it looks like fewer EVs will need lithium. 

There is a great danger the USA will simply be left behind.
