NV bought manufacturing equipment for $2B from China, now left in the lurch during bring-up, supplier dragging their heels, sending 3rd rate support engineers. Of course, China doesn't want to support a competitor in Europe...
Classic rogue state hybrid warfare, just as cut cables in baltic, also by Chinese. Plausible deniability all the way.

- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoThis is what I’m seeing in social media elsewhere - reports of difficulty getting good support from Chinese suppliers.
- MrHamburger 2y agoSupport is expensive getting good support from China is generally not possible, because it destroys margins. That is making me very curious about aftermarket of Chinese cars, because they might be cheapish today, but incredibly expensive when you will need to fix them.
- markus_zhang 2y agoI found a post supposedly written by a Chinese supplier of Northvolt. Not sure how true it is though so you need to find some insiders to validate the story. You will need some software to translate the picture into English/other languages. https://imgur.com/AyQYtFj https://imgur.com/AyQYtFj
