Will We Drive Electric on Asian Batteries?
The development of the electric car market, supported by public funding, needs to be monitored closely.

A lot of joint ventures are being signed with Asian battery companies and automotive suppliers. As a consequence, some argue that there is no rational to develop further and fund the European battery industry: batteries are already made more cheaply elsewhere.
