On today’s podcast:   Elon Tweets To Calm Expectations 7 Things To Expect From Battery Day What To Expect At Tesla’s Battery Day Event Elon Musk says ‘record deliveries possible’ in leaked employee email SK Innovation Accelerates Hiring at Battery Site in Georgia Nikola founder resigns as chairman amid allegations, SEC probe UK plans to bring forward ban on fossil fuel vehicles to 2030 VW races to meet EU target with new pooling deal BYD D1 comes with a cobalt-free BYD Blade Battery   Show #896   Good morning, good afternoon and good evening wherever you are in the world, welcome to EV News Daily for Tuesday 22nd September 2020. It’s Martyn Lee here and I go through every EV story so you don't have to.   Thank you to MYEV.com for helping make this show, they’ve built the first marketplace specifically for Electric Vehicles. It’s a totally free marketplace that simplifies the buying and selling process, and help you learn about EVs along the way too.   ELON TWEETS TO CALM EXPECTATIONS   "Important note about Tesla Battery Day unveil tomorrow. This affects long-term production, especially Semi, Cybertruck & Roadster, but what we announce will not reach serious high-volume production until 2022."   "We intend to increase, not reduce battery cell purchases from Panasonic, LG & CATL (possibly other partners too). However, even with our cell suppliers going at maximum speed, we still foresee significant shortages in 2022 & beyond unless we also take action ourselves."   7 THINGS TO EXPECT FROM BATTERY DAY Cost Parity? - Tesla is likely to announce its battery costs have dropped to less than $100 per kilowatt-hour Destination Density - Currently, the most advanced batteries found in a Tesla Model 3 have an energy density of about 250 kilowatt-hours per kilogram, according to BloombergNEF, by 2025, that could rise to as much as 400 kilowatt-hours per kg Electrode Innovation - there’s a small chance Musk may announce that Tesla is making its own batteries Cobalt-Free? - CATL provides Tesla with lower-cost lithium-ion-phosphate batteries that don’t contain any cobalt but are less energy-dense than NCA batteries. Spiked With Silicon - the more silicon there is in the anode, the higher the energy density of the battery. It’s possible Musk will announce Tesla has found a way to increase the amount of silicon loading in graphite anodes Million-Mile Battery - this could allow Tesla cars to connect with the electric grid and provide services to utilities, such as absorbing excess renewable energy or reducing demands on transmission infrastructure. Autobidder software. Partnership Shift? - Will one supplier emerge as dominant for Tesla’s auto business, while another focuses on the utility market?   https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-09-21/seven-things-to-watch-for-from-elon-musk-at-tesla-s-battery-day   WHAT TO EXPECT AT TESLA’S BATTERY DAY EVENT "Biscuit Tins Cells - batteries, which are rumored to be from Tesla’s secretive “Roadrunner” project, appear to be twice the size of Panasonic’s 2170 cells. They also may be higher capacity while being lower cost for the company to produce by removing the tab, a part of the battery that forms a connection between the cell and what it is powering. The company posted job listings earlier this year seeking workers for “line cell manufacturing” engineers at its factory in Fremont, California. Tesla also struck a deal with South Korean company Hanwha Corporation to purchase battery formation equipment, with the equipment headed to Fremont first and then to Gigafactories in Nevada, Shanghai, and Berlin."   https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/21/21443806/tesla-battery-day-rumors-specs-what-to-expect-elon-musk   ELON MUSK SAYS ‘RECORD DELIVERIES POSSIBLE’ IN LEAKED EMPLOYEE EMAIL "Tesla (TSLA) has “a shot” at a “record quarter for vehicle deliveries,” according to CEO Elon Musk in a leaked email to employees. Unlike other automakers, Tesla owns its entire distribution system, meaning that it owns every vehicle until it is delivered to customers. This has a big effect on the automaker’s financials since it can’t recognize revenue until vehicles are delivered and it spent the money upfront to make those vehicles." according to electrek: "We have a shot at record quarter for deliveries, but we’ll have to rally hard to achieve it. This is the most number of vehicles per day that we’ would ever had to deliver. Please consider vehicle deliveries to be the absolute top priority. It’s also extremely important that we keep factory output as high as possible over the remaining 10 days. This is vital for the California market."   "Tesla’s last record deliveries were 112,000 vehicles delivered during the fourth quarter of 2019."   https://electrek.co/2020/09/20/tesla-tsla-elon-musk-record-deliveries-possible-leaked-employee-email/   SK INNOVATION ACCELERATES HIRING AT BATTERY SITE IN GEORGIA SK Innovation today announced it plans to hire more than 1,000 skilled American workers by the end of 2021 as it prepares for initial production at the first of two electric vehicle battery plants being built in Commerce, about 70 miles northeast of Atlanta. In one of the largest economic projects in Georgia's history, SK Innovation affirmed its long-range investment plans for the facility that would make Georgia one of the largest hubs of EV battery manufacturing in the world. SK Innovation, South Korea's largest energy company, is building two EV battery plants at the Georgia site as part of a $2.6 billion investment in its U.S. battery business that will directly create more than 2,600 permanent jobs in the Jackson County area by 2024. The first SK Battery America plant is scheduled to begin initial operations in 2021 with mass production in 2022. A second plant at the same site is expected to begin mass production in 2023. As the market for electric vehicles continues to grow, SK Innovation is committed to making Georgia a world leader in EV battery manufacturing."   https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/sk-innovation-accelerates-hiring-at-its-first-us-based-electric-vehicle-battery-site-in-georgia-301134940.html   NIKOLA FOUNDER RESIGNS AS CHAIRMAN AMID ALLEGATIONS, SEC PROBE "Nikola, the embattled electric-vehicle startup that recently partnered with General Motors, said its founder stepped down as executive chairman effective immediately, removing a target of critics but clouding Nikola’s future direction." writes Automotive News Europe: "The stock tumbled after short seller Hindenburg Research questioned the validity of Nikola’s claims about its electric-vehicle technology, accusing Nikola of being “an intricate fraud built on dozens of lies.” That drew the attention of financial regulators."   https://europe.autonews.com/automakers/nikola-founder-resigns-chairman-amid-allegations-sec-probe   UK PLANS TO BRING FORWARD BAN ON FOSSIL FUEL VEHICLES TO 2030 "The UK is poised to bring forward its ban on new fossil fuel vehicles from 2040 to 2030 to help speed up the rollout of electric vehicles across British roads. Boris Johnson is expected to accelerate the shift to electric vehicles this autumn with the announcement, one of a string of new clean energy policies to help trigger a green economic recovery from the coronavirus pandemic." says The Guardian: "The decision to end the sales of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030 would put the UK ahead of France, which has a 2040 ban in the pipeline, and in line with Germany, Ireland and the Netherlands. Norway will bring in a ban in 2025.n Graeme Cooper, the director in charge of National Grid’s electric vehicle project, told the Guardian that fears over the UK electricity grid’s ability to cope with a boom in electric vehicle charging were unfounded. He said the grid operator was “confident that a faster transition is possible” and that it is “suitably robust” to cope with a rise in electricity demand."   https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/sep/21/uk-plans-to-bring-forward-ban-on-fossil-fuel-vehicles-to-2030   VW RACES TO MEET EU TARGET WITH NEW POOLING DEAL "Volkswagen has brokered an “insurance policy” agreement with MG Motor that will allow the German carmaker to count the firm’s electric car sales alongside its own, in what is seen as a last ditch effort to comply with the EU’s 2020 CO2 emissions target." reportd Euractiv: "VW has entered into a so-called pooling deal with MG, which is owned by China’s SAIC Motor, that will reduce the German company’s average emissions and bring it in line with European legislation, EU documents reveal. According to the 2020 regulation, carmakers have to slash their fleet emissions down to an EU-wide average of 95g of CO2 per kilometre. Each firm has its own goal and while some are on track to meet their benchmarks, others are struggling. VW was expected to hit its target without any outside help and has timed sales of its new ID:3 electric car to fall within the 2020 window, meaning the MG deal is an unexpected development. MG Motor makes the all-electric ZS EV, will add a second model this year and is popular in the UK, Norway and France, meaning it is well-placed to join the VW pool for 2020-2022. The agreement remains open to other companies to join. Car pools have to be registered by the end of 2020 with the European Commission and manufacturers may now scramble to secure the best deals if non-compliance with the rules and the large fines that it entails becomes more likely."   And electrive has a take on Brexit: "Plus there is the Brexit looming. The UK is likely to keep the EU emission targets but would trade these internally. Here the pool with SAIC/MG is making sense for Volkswagen. Most of the Group’s sales in Britain are through Bentley, meaning CO2 intensive cars. The MG ZS EV on the other hand, was the fourth most registered BEV model in the UK, with more EV models on the horizon, according to the August edition of the European Electric Car Report."   https://www.euractiv.com/section/transport/news/vw-races-to-meet-eu-target-with-new-pooling-deal/   https://www.electrive.com/2020/09/20/co2-pooling-vw-merges-fleets-with-saic-and-ford/   BYD D1 COMES WITH A COBALT-FREE BYD BLADE BATTERY "BYD D1 is a very interesting electric MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle) that gets a cobalt-free LFP battery. With a sliding door on the right and two normal doors on the left this is an electric vehicle especially made for families with kids and ride-hailing services." reports Pedro for PushEVs: "Chinese ride-hailing giant Didi Chuxing, the company that bought Uber’s China business in 2016 will use this model. According to Moneyball, Didi plans to put 10.000 D1 units in service already this year – between October and December – and 100.000 units in 2021."   Battery energy density: 140 Wh/kg Battery type: LFP BYD Blade Battery Motor: 100 kW   "In a more realistic test cycle such as the WLTP, the range would be around 310 km (193 miles) and the consumption around 17 kWh/100 km. BYD can switch to cobalt-free CTP battery packs much faster than most automakers. Mainly because it produces its own battery cells and battery packs, therefore it doesn’t have any contracts to honor with external suppliers. Currently BYD is putting its Blade Battery packs in models that have bigger batteries, where replacing NCM with cobalt-free LFP represents more savings, but I expect that these packs will eventually come to more affordable models such as the e1 and e2 that have smaller batteries."   https://pushevs.com/2020/09/21/byd-d1-comes-with-a-cobalt-free-byd-blade-battery/   You can listen to all 895 previous episodes of this this for free, where you get your podcasts from, plus the blog https://www.evnewsdaily.com/ – remember to subscribe, which means you don’t have to think about downloading the show each day, plus you get it first and free and automatically.   It would mean a lot if you could take 2mins to leave a quick review on whichever platform you download the podcast.   And  if you have an Amazon Echo, download our Alexa Skill, search for EV News Daily and add it as a flash briefing.   Come and say hi on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter just search EV News Daily, have a wonderful day, I’ll catch you tomorrow and remember…there’s no such thing as a self-charging hybrid.     PHIL ROBERTS / ELECTRIC FUTURE (PREMIUM PARTNER) BRAD CROSBY (PREMIUM PARTNER) AVID TECHNOLOGY (PREMIUM PARTNER) PORSCHE OF THE VILLAGE CINCINNATI (PREMIUM PARTNER) AUDI CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) VOLVO CARS CINCINNATI EAST (PREMIUM PARTNER) NATIONALCARCHARGING.COM and ALOHACHARGE.COM  (PREMIUM PARTNER) DEREK REILLY FROM THE EV REVIEW IRELAND YOUTUBE CHANNEL (PREMIUM PARTNER)   DAVID AND LISA ALLEN (PARTNER) OEM AUDIO OF NEW ZEALAND AND EVPOWER.CO.NZ (PARTNER) GARETH HAMER eMOBILITY NORWAY HTTPS://WWW.EMOBILITYNORWAY.COM/  (PARTNER) BOB BOOTHBY – MILLBROOK COTTAGES AND ELOPEMENT WEDDING VENUE (PARTNER) DARIN MCLESKEY FROM DENOVO REAL ESTATE (PARTNER) JUKKA KUKONEN FROM WWW.SHIFT2ELECTRIC.COM RAJEEV NARAYAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER)   ALAN ROBSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALAN SHEDD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEX BANAHENE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ALEXANDER FRANK @ https://www.youtube.com/c/alexsuniverse42 ANDERS HOVE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ANDREA JEFFERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASEER KHALID (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ASHLEY HILL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BÅRD FJUKSTAD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRENT KINGSFORD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRIAN THOMPSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) BRUCE BOHANNAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHARLES HALL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CHRIS HOPKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) COLIN HENNESSY AND CAMBSEV (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG COLES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) CRAIG ROGERS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAMIEN DAVIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DARREN FEATCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVE DEWSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID FINCH (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID MOORE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PARTINGTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DAVID PRESCOTT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) DON MCALLISTER / SCREENCASTSONLINE.COM (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ERU KYEYUNE-NYOMBI (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) FREDRIK ROVIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GENE RUBIN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GILBERTO ROSADO (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) GEOFF LOWE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) HEDLEY WRIGHT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN GRIFFITHS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN SEAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) IAN (WATTIE) WATKINS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JACK OAKLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JAMES STORR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JIM MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODICERS) JOHN C SOLAR (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON AKA BEARDY MCBEARDFACE FROM KENT EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JON MANCHAK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) JUAN GONZALEZ (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEN MORRIS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KEVIN MEYERSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) KYLE MAHAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LARS DAHLAGER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LAURENCE D ALLEN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LEE BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) LUKE CULLEY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARCEL WARD (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARK BOSSERT (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MARTY YOUNG  (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MATT PISCIONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIA OPPELSTRUP (PARTNER) MICHAEL PASTRONE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) MIKE WINTER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NATHAN GORE-BROWN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NEIL E ROBERTS FROM SUSSEX EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) NIGEL MILES (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) OHAD ASTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL RIDINGS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PAUL STEPHENSON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GLASS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETE GORTON (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PETER & DEE ROBERTS FROM OXON EVS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHIL MOUCHET (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) PHILIP TRAUTMAN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RAJ BADWAL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENE KEEMIK (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RENÉ SCHNEIDER (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RICHARD LUPINSKY (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB HERMANS (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) ROB FROM THE RSTHINKS EV CHANNEL ON YOUTUBE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) RUPERT MITCHELL (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) SEIKI PAYNE (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEPHEN PENN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) STEVE JOHN (EXECUTIVE PRODUCER) THOMAS J.

A long-awaited report into Russian interference in the UK has made a bombshell claim: the Government ‘actively avoided looking for evidence' of a threat from the Kremlin. MI5 is also criticised for its response to the Intelligence and Security Committee as it investigated whether Moscow sought to sway the outcome of the 2016 Brexit vote. The Evening Standard's Julian Glover says the big question now is: whose decision was it not to look for Russian influence?And, Boris Johnson has assembled his Cabinet face-to-face for the first time since Spring. Ministers were socially distanced and had easy access to hand sanitiser - measures we've become familiar with to stop the spread of Covid-19. But they were under no obligation to wear face masks, despite them becoming mandatory in shops and on public transport. Oxford University Professor Melinda Mills and director of the Leverhulme Centre for Demographic Science says these confusing messages could lead to a second spike in cases.
