I know someone who went down to the docks to collect his Tes after paying for it in full, he's after the retirement age and still works, also has the comfort of home charging on his driveway. I think he did the deal all on line.

"Former CIA Director and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told lawmakers that a proposed electric vehicle battery plant in Michigan could be used for Chinese espionage" Ya think? It's as if the guvnure, who strongly pushed for the plant even after warnings, is somehow tied to China. Ya think?

The desperation is getting comical, if not outright absurd.
"Montauk, Fishers Island in New York, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket in Massachusetts will now be classified as “low-income” and eligible for EV charger subsidies" NOTHING will surprise me as this crew winds their time up.

Some good news to start the day.
China EVs: lithium producers Ganfeng, Tianqi issue profit warnings, blame price plunge for battery material as stocks sink 31 Jan, 2024 The two producers of the metal that powers EV batteries expect 2023 net profit to decline by as much as 80 per cent Ganfeng shares dropped 5 per cent and Tianqi declined 5.9 per cent on Wednesday in Hong Kong “Due to the cyclical [nature] of the lithium industry and the growth rate of [end-user] demand slowing down, [there was] a significant decrease in the price of lithium-salt products,” Ganfeng said in its filing to Hong Kong’s bourse. “In 2024, we believe the focus will be on the supply side,” said Daiwa’s analysts in the report. “De-capacity is the name of the game.” https://www.scmp.com/business/commod...ttery-material The spirit of the age media can lie all they want but the financial news can generally be trusted to tell the facts. Money flows to where it profitable. Last edited by Car-Addicted; 02-01-2024 at 08:27 AM.. Reason: Added demand chart |

Tapping the Brakes on Electric Vehicles Jan 29 2024 Couple highlights Facts and context matter. The world in 2023 saw, according to NOAA, a new peak in global CO2 emissions. The claimed 122 megatons cut by EVs sounds big, but it amounts to only 0.03 percent of global emissions. For context, oil-burning war-machines in Ukraine are adding at least that much CO2 to the atmosphere yearly. The problem is that you can’t measure an EV’s CO2 emissions. The CO2 emissions arising from building an EV before it gets driven revolve around a simple fact: a typical EV battery weighs about 1,000 pounds. That half-ton battery is made from a wide range of minerals, including copper, nickel, aluminum, graphite, and lithium. Accessing those minerals requires digging up and processing some 250 tons of earth per vehicle. All that mining, processing, and refining uses hydrocarbons and emits CO2. The critical fact found in the technical literature is that those upstream emissions vary by 300 percent or more, depending on where and when materials are mined and processed. At the higher end of known ranges, upstream battery emissions can wipe out emissions avoided by not driving a gasoline car. But the rate of EV adoption will slow long before there’s a battery-dominated future because, again, we’ll run out of money, copper, and political tolerance for enriching other nations—especially China, where 50 percent to 90 percent of the critical materials are now produced and will be for years yet, no matter how lawmakers rewrite the sourcing regulations. And if proposed EPA rules for an EV-dominated future do become law, count on millions of very unhappy consumers, otherwise known as voters. https://www.city-journal.org/article...ctric-vehicles Thank you eugenebmw for the original post. |
