U.S. Policy Shaping EV Battery Supply Chains
About this episode
In this episode of The Zero Emission Zone, we break down the effects of U.S. industrial policy, particularly the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), on the electric vehicle (EV) battery supply chain. Join us as we explore how incentives and restrictions are reshaping the production of critical battery components, and the competition between battery chemistries like lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and nickel/cobalt-based batteries. We’ll also discuss the global implications of these policies and how they aim to reduce vulnerabilities and create a more resilient, domestic EV industry. Tune in to understand how policy decisions are shaping the future of EV technology and supply chains.
