Why The U.S. EV Industry Is Facing A Battery Shortage

  • U.S. automakers are finally making bold commitments to electrify their fleets, but in the short-term, there may not be enough lithium-ion batteries to go around. While China dominates the battery manufacturing supply chain, and Europe is working to catch up, the U.S. still lags far behind. As batteries become a matter of energy independence and national security, here’s what the U.S. can do to catch up.
    As automakers continue to grapple with a semiconductor shortage, some experts say the next supply chain crisis for the U.S. could involve lithium-ion batteries. As companies like GM, Ford and a slew of start-ups are ramping up their electric vehicle ambitions, current battery production in the U.S. will not be able to keep up with demand.
    Though the U.S. does have a handful of large-scale battery manufacturing facilities, including Tesla's Gigafactory which operates in partnership with Panasonic, a trade dispute between two Korean battery makers, LG Chem and SK Innovation, threatens the future of a new battery factory in Georgia.
    Watch the video to learn why the U.S. has fallen behind China and Europe, and what needs to happen in order to avoid a bottleneck in EV production.

      A heavy dose of blame rests on incompetent policy makers, I agree with you there. In addition, CEOs are too short term focused. Basically every legacy automaker has sat on their hands for the last two decades without properly investing in electric vehicle R&D, and also failing to put in place the requisite battery manufacturing infrastructure.

      Too many MBA's blithely put in positions of power to run EXISTING companies. They aren't starting new companies, but are merely masters of the shuffle. Most don't really understand how their products are created and produced. Just over-hyped CPA's, in my mind. If they were/are so clever, why didn't they see the electric car, battery storage, solar roof, etc. revolutions coming?
      Ford, GM, etc. are top heavy with these leaches.

      tesla alone produced more batteries in 2020 than the entire world in 2015. There is no 'battery shortage', just legacy automakers that dont really want to make electric vehicles so they have bothered setting up any substantial battery supply chain. Every company that needs batteries has them; its basic management.

      On a side note the contribution of Capitalism for lifting people globally out of _extreme_ poverty also does not look good. Deduct the contribution of China (which has an odd mix of socialism, to down planning, and capitalism) - and there is not much left for self congratulatory statements of Western politicians and statisticians.
      We need industrial mass production to improve standards of living not Capitalism(the productivity wins make it possible IF the lower classes get most of the gains, but the Western oligarchs haven't figured that out, in the Golden Era after WW2 the stars aligned and workers had a good run for 30 - 4 years. But only in developed countries.
      Interestingly the tyrannical regimes in China and Soviet Union (with partially highly inefficent top down micromanaged production) also achieved a LOT.
      One could say India and China started in the same postition. In India Modhi won his first election with the promise of more toilets, a functioning sewage system is NOT an issue in China).
      Consider the terrible toll of WW1 and WW2 on Russia and where they started in 1917. There were a lot of poor people also in Europe and the U.S. but it was worse in Russia (as a rule of thumb they were at least 100 years behind the rest of Europe).
      In mid 1950s the Soviets had somewhat recovered from the worst fallout of WW2, educated the children of the poor peasants of 1917, and challenged the U.S. in the Sputnik shock. In 1917 they had a very high illiteracy rate.
      And whatever was bad in Russia - it was worse in China.
      The peasants were desperately poor. So poor that Mao campaigned on one bowl of rice per day for everyone (I think FDR told the voters in the 1930s about a chicken in the pot on Sunday to give some perspective).

      Lots of people in lots of countries are bringing in Teslas. Unfortunately , Tesla is not represented in those countries so service must be performed by shipping the car to the nearest service center. Charging can also be an issue. Having a charger at their home is the most viable solution to charging in a country without Tesla support and a Supercharger network. I know of hundreds of people bring Teslas into Bangkok, the car is perfect for their traffic as sometimes you can sit for 15-30 minutes without moving and with electric to lose little energy while just sitting. There, a home charger is a partial solution since charging at night will result in a “full tank “ in the morning. Long trips are a different matter, so most Teslas brought into non supported countries are mainly used as second or third cars.

      The republicans are either turning a blind eye because they are benefiting from the current situation, or are too stupid or ignorant to realize what is going on. With the schools teaching to the lowest common denominator (the stupidest person in a classroom), the No Child Left Behind bill ensures an ignorant electorate who needs to be told what to think because they are not taught to think for themselves. Most blatant dumbing down of students I've ever seen, except the following: the 2012 Republican Party Platform stated: "We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking . . . critical thinking skills . . . " and other statements that showed the Republicans wanted a decline in a thinking electoric, because maybe they couldn't win if more people were taught to think on their own? When this became public, the party said it was a "mistake." How many people read, retyped, and set up the printing of the platform? It was a "mistake," as a defence of this deplorable situation? Get real! Saying it was a mistake is insulting to everyone, since the party thought we were all to stupid to see through that lie. And that was before the Orange Thing was in office!

    Lots of people say they like the "gas guzzling" experience of owning an ICE car. But tesla can easily make a ICE mode, by adding a gas perfume in the car, disabling home charging, reducing accelleration by 95%, adding speakers and gas guzzling sounds, and increasing vibrations in the engine and car , and purposely misalligning the engine magnets to increase inefficiency, as well as disable battery management system 99% of the time to increase fire damage and fire chances by 100x to match that of ice cars These simple modification will allow people to get the gas experience while still riding tesla.

      While bothering to do what you suggested, when we could be building Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), having a real gasoline engine to produce all the noise and vibration and gasoline fumes that anyone would want. A plugged-in gasoline-electric hybrid (PHEV) requires only 1/5 to 1/10 of the battery capacity of a long-range Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), yet can be driven on battery electricity for 80% of its total mileage. It would make more sense to build mostly PHEV for now, when battery production capacity is still the limiting factor.

      It is a history similar to how the gas-related oligarchs blocked the development of public transportation by buying off all the train lines and similar transportation while deploying the propaganda of owning ones' own vehicle and driving highway everywhere. And when AmTrak becomes a passe, no high speed rail could ever be established in the US.

      This already exists. Lithium batteries aren’t new and we already know how to recycle them. As battery manufacturing ramps up battery recycling will only be a few years to a decade behind. However there isn’t currently any real need to recycle batteries. The Tesla Model S only came out in 2012 so the first gen car’s batteries only recently exceeded their warranties so only a few tens of thousands of EV batteries are starting to approach the age when they might need to be replaced. They can then spend another decade as grid storage before finally being recycled. Lithium EV batteries can have lives lasting decades.
