Another reason we will all rely on China…
- dx034 4y agoI believe car manufacturers are already big in battery production, for them it's as crucial as ICE production was before. It takes time to ramp up but I'd expect battery tech to be a key component that large manufacturers will want to have in house. But it could be one of the first key technologies where Chinese companies are a few years ahead of European and American companies.

CATL is a spinoff from ATL, so it's possible that there's some cross-pollination going on. This company is fascinating to me, because until recently they had no media presence.
