JB Straubel was Elon Musk's battery guy. Now he's trying to turn what some see as trash into power for the electric vehicle revolution. Straubel was there at the earliest days of Tesla, and in his 15 years with the electric vehicle company, he played an integral role: he developed the battery pack used in the first Tesla vehicle, was the company's Chief Technology Officer, and now sits on the board of directors. But his day job is running the battery-recycling startup Redwood Materials, and he envisions a future where recycled batteries power our cars, cell phones and power tools. So could companies like his one day replace the oil giants who fueled the last century? Why does he think humans have room to work harder? And can the Tesla board manage Musk as he takes on a growing role in U.S. politics, including advising the Trump administration? Straubel speaks to WSJ's Tim Higgins and Christopher Mims in episode three of our interview series Bold Names. Let us know what you think of the show.

Batteries are a critical part of the transition away from fossil fuels. From electric vehicles to grid scale storage for wind and solar, demand for batteries is expected to grow 500% by 2030. In order to meet that demand, we're going to need a lot more batteries.  And while companies like JB Straubel's Redwood Materials are building capacity for recycling, for now that means a lot more mining. With the battery supply chain only growing more critical as the electric vehicle market matures, we're revisiting this critical episode from last summer exploring how to build a battery supply chain that meets demand while reducing harm.

The lithium-ion battery business is taking off, and the battery recycling business is close behind. Financiers are pouring over a billion dollars into recycling companies like Redwood Materials, Ascend Elements, and Li-Cycle. But success depends on a steady supply of used batteries, and with batteries lasting longer than expected — and the battery market still in its infancy — there just aren't enough dying batteries to go around.  As a result, a significant portion of recyclers' feedstock is coming from manufacturer scrap, i.e. the waste that companies like SK On and Panasonic don't turn into cells at the factory. But these battery makers are incentivized to minimize waste, which raises big questions about whether recyclers will be able to get enough used batteries to sustainably feed their operations. So which technologies and business models will succeed in this chapter of the battery industry? In this episode, Shayle talks to Dan Steingart, chair of the earth and environmental engineering department at Columbia University. (Steingart's lab gets funding from battery manufacturer Northvolt.) Shayle and Dan cover topics like: The steps in nickel-manganese-cobalt battery recycling and what Dan calls “zombie lithium” The differences between pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy Dan's bet on solvent extraction as an under-appreciated technology Redwood Materials' focus on winning the feedstock battle Ascend Elements' hydro-to-cathode technology Li-Cycle's focus on making inputs for cathode manufacturers How these recyclers want to compete downstream by producing cathode precursor and cathode material  Why Dan is surprisingly bearish on direct recycling for lithium-iron-phosphate Recommended Resources: Nature Sustainability: Examining different recycling processes for lithium-ion batteries Latitude Media: What's so hard about building a circular battery economy? Are growing concerns over AI's power demand justified?

Demand for lithium-ion batteries is estimated to grow 500% in the next 10 years. With such an intense surge on the horizon, there is a need to ramp up the supply chain quickly and sustainably to support this growth. . Enter Redwood Materials. Founded by JB Straubel, co-founder and former CTO of Tesla, Redwood is transforming the EV battery supply chain by producing anode copper foil and cathode active materials in the US at scale for the first time—and using an increasing amount of recycled content to build those components. . Currently, EV battery materials move 50,000+ miles before they reach a battery cell factory. By offering large-scale sources of domestic anode and cathode materials produced from an increasing number of recycled batteries that directly go back to U.S. cell manufacturers, Redwood is creating a closed-loop, domestic supply chain for lithium-ion batteries. . We sat down with Alexis Georgeson, VP Government Relations & Communications, to discuss Redwood Materials circular supply chain and how the company is recycling, refining, and remanufacturing battery materials for a clean energy future. . We'd love to hear from you. Share your comments, questions and ideas for future topics and guests to podcast@sae.org.

VW ID.4 GETTING PLUG & CHARGE, BIDIRECTIONAL CHARGING THIS SUMMER - VW Group CEO Herbert Diess hosted an AMA session yesterday on Reddit and got asked more than 1,000 questions. - While he couldn't possibly answer all of them, he did offer some long-awaited updates for VW ID.4 owners, especially those in the United States. As it turns out, an important software update the automaker has promised last year is finally arriving this summer. - "We will have a major OTA update for the ID.4 coming this summer, which will add features like Plug & Charge and Auto Hold, as well as a higher capacity onboard charge capability." - The update will arrive in Vehicle to Home (V2H) form, which means ID.4 owners will be able to power their appliances from the car or the entire house in case of a blackout. Diess stopped short of offering specific details, so it will be interesting to see how VW compares to the Hyundai E-GMP platform output of 2-4 kW. - "Bidirectional charging will be available this year for all ID. Models with 77 kWh battery, also via OTA update. In the beginning we will only offer Vehicle-to-home. This means you can run your dishwasher with electricity from abroad." Original Source : https://insideevs.com/news/568191/vw-id4-plugcharge-bidirectional-charging/ VOLKSWAGEN SETS EYES ON $22K EV - The 63-year old CEO also talked about simplifying the company structure and adopting a Tesla-like working style in which different engineering teams work together in the company. “Volkswagen will remain a multi-brand mobility company working worldwide and being present in many segments. To reduce complexity we are focusing on platforms, even more in the future,” Diess said. Volkswagen is banking on its next-generation mechatronics platform Scalable Systems Platform, or SSP, betting on CARIAD for its software needs and aiming to lower battery costs by up to 50% with a unified cells approach. “But yes, in some segments we are still too complex in our product offering. We are making good progress in reducing complexity.” Original Source : https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/02/25680772/volkswagen-sets-eyes-on-22k-ev-as-it-looks-to-rival-tesla-ceo-says-focus-on-simplifying-company-stru VOLKSWAGEN ELECTRIC CARS TO POWER HOMES BY END 2022: DIESS - Volkswagen first introduced a 22kW bidirectional DC charging station in 2020, which it deployed across 20 sites for testing.  It is also dependent on regulatory approval by authorities and utility operators; V2H and V2G (vehicle-to-grid)-capable Nissan Leafs have been deployed in Japan where concerns about energy security amid typhoons, cyclones and nuclear disasters have driven its approval, but its use is still sparse on a global scale.  The capability differs from “vehicle-to-load” introduced by Hyundai and Kia in the Ioniq 5 and EV6, enabling owners to plug directly to the vehicle's lithium-ion battery to power devices like kettles and lights when camping, or recharge batteries in electric bikes and power tools for example. - Diess said that another software upgrade would enable “plug and charge” in the ID.4 my mid-2022, as well as faster charging and “autohold” which maintains the pressure applied in braking to make stopping and starting in traffic a more pleasant experience. “We will have a major OTA update for the ID.4 coming this summer, which will add features like Plug&Charge and AutoHold, as well as a higher capacity onboard charge capability,” he wrote. Original Source : https://thedriven.io/2022/02/17/volkswagen-electric-cars-to-power-homes-by-end-2022-diess/ VW CEO HINTS AT ELECTRIC PICKUP TRUCK AND SEDANS DURING REDDIT AMA | CARSCOOPS - Diess said the most emotional vehicle in Volkswagen's history is “definitely the micro bus,” so his “first priority” was creating the ID.Buzz which will be unveiled next month. However, he admitted “many other emotional cars are possible on our scalable MEB platform.” - Diess reiterated the company is “working on electric cars around 20k euros for entry segments.” Of course, this isn't really news as Volkswagen unveiled the ID.Life concept at the 2021 Munich Motor Show and noted it “provides a preview of an ID. model in the small car segment that we will be launching in 2025, priced at around 20,000 euros.” Original Source : https://www.carscoops.com/2022/02/vw-group-ceo-hints-at-electric-sedans-and-a-pickup-truck-during-reddit-ama/ - On Lidar, Diess surprisingly took a different tack than his friend, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is adamant that Robotaxis can be made from only vision systems. - Diess remarked that Lidar, or more specifically redundant perception, was integral to getting to Level 3 autonomy, saying: “Lidar technology is still expensive, but todays the only way to offer redundant perception to the 360 camera systems which are a must. Safety is really crucial in autonomous driving. For level 3 driving you need redundant perception.” - He clarified that Level 3 autonomy “requires”  redundant Lidar perception. Volkswagen has partnered with MobileEye for its Lidar systems, which have been dropping in price.  “Yes, definitely level 3 requires redundant Lidar perception.” - As for the when, Diess was a little less specific than Tesla's “this year” timespan.  “autonomous driving is the biggest gamechanger for the automotive industry. we will be able to drive our customers safe and comfortably. This will be a gradual process from taking over responsibility on open highways in good weather conditions getting to more complex environments and weather situations worldwide. So this will be a long process of competition for a long period to come. We are building up competencies to become a serious competitor in this race.” Original Source : https://electrek.co/2022/02/16/vw-ceo-diess-disagrees-with-tesla-ceo-elon-musk-saying-l3-autonomy-requires-lidar-plus-vw-ev-pickup-summer-ota-and-more/ FORD TO RELEASE ELECTRIC PUMA - ELECTRIVE.COM - Ford plans an all-electric version of its Puma small car slated for launch in the 2025 model year. The electric Puma will adopt the drive technology from the electric version of the upcoming Ford Transit Courier. - According to the Australian portal Drive, Ford wants to launch the electric Transit Courier in 2024. With the introduction of the 2025 model year (which usually takes place in the second half of the previous year), the electric Puma would follow shortly afterwards. - The report does not mention possible technical data on the drive for the panel van and the Puma. However, the information that Drive claims to have seen indicates that the electric Puma will not be a new generation of the small SUV but an electric version of the familiar model – using the same internal codename. - Apart from the name, the SUV no longer has anything to do with Ford's small sports coupe in 1997. Original Source : https://www.electrive.com/2022/02/17/ford-to-release-electric-puma/ FORD, VOLVO JOIN REDWOOD MATERIALS BATTERY RECYCLING PROGRAM - Redwood Materials, the startup founded by former Tesla CTO JB Straubel, is launching an electric vehicle battery recycling program in California with Ford and Volvo as inaugural partners as pressure mounts to source materials for EVs. - The basic plan is that Redwood Materials will work with dealers and dismantlers in California to recover end-of-life battery packs in hybrid and electric vehicles. Straubel said the program will be free for those turning in vehicle batteries. The cost of retrieving, properly packaging and then transporting the batteries back to Redwood's recycling facility in northern Nevada will be shared by the startup along with partners Volvo and Ford. Redwood will accept all lithium-ion and nickel metal hydride batteries in the state, regardless of the make or model of the vehicle. - Redwood has launched a portal that scrapyards and dealers can use to organize the retrieval of the batteries. - Earlier this year, existing partner Panasonic announced that battery cells made at the Gigafactory it operates with Tesla will use more recycled materials by the end of 2022 as part of an expanded relationship with Redwood Materials.

Pete Bigelow, Senior Reporter, covering self-driving tech and the future of mobility, Automotive News joined Grayson Brulte on The Road To Autonomy Podcast to discuss Ford and the electrification of an iconic brand.The conversation begins with Grayson and Pete discussing the incredible performance of Ford under CEO Jim Farley in the public markets. As Ford electrifies their brand, the company has implemented a savvy strategy built around iconic Ford brands: F-150 and Mustang.As car companies such as Ford begin to electrify their lineup of vehicles, it's important not to lose sight of the circular economy. Ford clearly understands the positive impact that the circular economy will have on the EV supply chain and the environment as Ford is an investor in Redwood Materials (a battery recycling startup).Everybody suddenly sees the writing on the wall that the chip shortage of 2020 to 2023 is going to quickly turn into the battery supply shortage of 2024 to 2028. – Pete BigelowWhile the supply chain will pose long-term challenges for automakers, the model of selling vehicles to consumers is changing. Consumers are demanding a direct-to-consumer model and shying away from dealers due to the overall buying experience.The dealership networks of today are not well set up to sell electric vehicles. They are an obstacle in a lot of ways. They are not incentivized to sell electric vehicles. It's a whole different thing where you are selling an ecosystem and you need to answer questions about utility bills and getting a charger installed in your home. – Pete BigelowAs certain car dealers look to charge more for a vehicle due to demand, it ends up having a negative long-term effect on the automaker's brand, not the dealer. It's important for car companies to take a stand and protect their brands. Ford is doing this by not allowing dealers to mark up the vehicle due to demand.Startups such as Rivian (which Ford owns 12%) do not have dealer networks. Does this create an inherent competitive advantage? Grayson and Pete discuss the pros and cons of the Rivian brand and the appeal of outdoor (Patagonia, The North Face) brands. Grayson raises the question: Does Rivian's van business devalue the brand's overall value?Competition in the electric van market is heating up with GM's Brightdrop, Stellantis' Ram ProMaster, and Ford's E-Transit vans coming online in the near future. Could these vans become autonomous in the future?Wrapping up the conversation, Grayson and Pete discuss the airport opportunity for autonomous vehicles and why the future of autonomy might not be shared.Recorded on Monday, January 17, 2021.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to a new Patreon Producer JAMES FEJEDELEM APPLE CAR RUMORS INSPIRE KOREAN BATTERY MANUFACTURERS TO FORM TASK FORCE - a report published on Wednesday by 9 to 5 Mac, which claims that South Korean battery manufacturers have formed an Apple Car task force.The idea of a multicorporation task force being formed to court Apple's business is gutsy, but it may not be without its merits. - Apple has had visits with several battery suppliers in the last month, presumably with the goal of locking down a supplier for a pack of its own design. - Apple is rumored to be looking to South Korea for a number of its components, but it's not clear how many of those will be off-the-shelf, and how many will be custom. Original Source : https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/apple-car-battery-task-force-formed-korea/ PLUGSHARE PLATFORM REACHES 2 MILLION REGISTERED USERS WORLDWIDE - PlugShare, the world's leading EV community and a part of the EVgo Inc. (Nasdaq: EVGO) family since mid-2021, today announced that its platform has reached over two million registered users globally. - comes on the heels of the platform surpassing over one million new app downloads over the course of 2021, - In 2021, PlugShare drivers provided over 1.3 million ratings of their charging experiences. Original Source : https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220113005197/en/ BMW INVESTS IN HEYCHARGE, FOR ACCESS TO A WIDER RANGE OF EV CHARGERS - BMW recently announced another important investment in the field of green mobility. This time, the BMW i Ventures investment arm focused on the charging infrastructure, an area that was criticized by the BMW Group CEO, Oliver Zipse not long ago. The company invested in HeyCharge, a German start-up that aims to open access to private charging locations for its users. - Usually, in order to start using an EV charger, you'll need an app or an RFID card, as well as an internet connection. However, most subterranean garages lack an internet access point or the ability to install such devices at this time. - HeyCharge's patent-pending technology, removes the requirement for an on-site internet connection by allowing the app and chargers to interact directly over bluetooth with the HeyCharge App or SDK. This increases system availability while reducing delay between the phone and the charger. Total costs in buildings can be lowered by up to 80% when combined with HeyCharge's simple and effective hardware component, Access Point.

The collaboration will enable more emission-free transportation and support EV adoption as EV charging infrastructure is enhanced within some of America's most popular national parks. - Under the collaboration between Rivian and Adopt a Charger, Rivian will pay for the equipment and fund 10 years of operation and maintenance by the two organizations. Adopt a Charger, which celebrated its tenth anniversary last year, has installed over 400 chargers in 10 states, including in 26 California state parks and at major cultural institutions such as the Getty Center.

Saturday Special – listen this weekend for Ian Johnston from Osprey Charging talking about the future of fueling up, and the innovative load-sharing solutions he's bringing to the UK. A couple of listener comments from yesterday's podcast...Chris in Texas says that I didn't mention the effective price of the Audio Q4 e-tron yesterday. Whilst it has a competitive price of $43,900 for the Q4 40, I forgot to mention the federal tax credit, which means I should be saying $36,400 after incentives. That's a good price for a 82kWh car, with 201hp and sub-8 second 0-60mph.  EPA range possibly around 250 miles. And Michelle in Sacramento made a point about the Mercedes-Benz EQS. I talked about the starting price of $102,310 for the EQS 450+. That has a 107.8kWh pack with 487 miles of range on the WLTP. She pointed out the entry-level S Class is $109,800, so the EQS is almost 10 grand cheaper than the equivalent petrol. FORD PARTNERS WITH TESLA FOUNDER ON BATTERY RECYCLING & SUPPLY CHAIN "Ford Motor Co. announced on Wednesday plans to team up with a co-founder of Tesla Inc. on battery recycling in an effort to improve Ford's domestic battery supply chain for electric vehicles." reports the Detroit Free Press: "This new partnership with Redwood Materials, run by CEO J.B. Straubel, the first chief technology officer at Tesla, focuses on "localizing the complex supply chain network, creating recycling options for end-of-life vehicles, ramping lithium-ion recycling and increasing U.S. battery production," Ford said in a news release. Straubel, who worked at Tesla from 2004 to 2019, has built a reputation for creating a circular supply chain for batteries and helping partners in the electric-vehicle and clean-energy industries by providing technologies to remanufacture lithium-ion batteries. As part of this new collaboration, Ford also announced it has invested $50 million in Redwood." They add: "Ford announced in May plans to manufacture battery cells and arrays, which store energy for later use, through multiple BlueOvalSK battery plants in North America starting around 2025.  BlueOvalSK is the U.S. joint venture between Ford and SK Innovation." "With Ford, Redwood Materials is looking to be more deeply integrated than just a recycling partner. Straubel's startup is working with the Detroit automaker to figure out plans for everything from helping to process scrap material, to finding new life for worn-down batteries with ample capacity remaining, to helping Ford create new batteries out of salvaged lithium, nickel, cobalt, and copper." says The Verge: "the overarching goal is one that Straubel has talked about frequently since founding Redwood Materials. The idea is to create a “circular” or “closed loop” system where the stuff that makes up lithium-ion batteries gets recycled and reused, which could theoretically drive down the cost of an EV's battery while reducing the automaker's reliance on imported materials and (one day) mining." JB was employee #5 at Tesla, he is as central to their success story as anyone else, and it's not surprising Ford want to invest.

The facility is expected to begin rolling out vehicles by 2023. Foxconn had previously reported plans to begin building factories in both Thailand and the U.S. next year." says The Verge: "The initial production capacity of the Thailand facility will be around 50,000 units, which Foxconn says will increase three-fold by 2030. The Thailand plant officially marks Foxconn as an automaker in its own right, but the company is also working with EV maker Fisker on a U.S. manufacturing plant, which should also start production in 2023. The two companies signed a joint agreement, called Project PEAR," Read more: https://techcrunch.com/2021/09/21/foxconn-says-thailand-ev-factory-will-begin-producing-50000-units-by-2023/ LUCID WILL BUILD 520 AIR DREAM EDITIONS "The EPA recently released its official range figures for the limited Dream Edition and as the company expected, its 520 miles (836 kilometers) is the best range ever tested by the EPA, besting the Tesla Model S Long Range by over 100 miles (160 kilometers)" writes MotorIllustrated: "To commemorate this achievement, the company decided to increase production of the fully reserved Dream Edition up to 520 units, which means a number of customers that were previously on the waiting list will be able to buy the car after all. The Lucid Air Dream Edition can be ordered in two trims, the Dream Edition R, which provides the 520 mile (836 kilometer) range and delivers 933 horsepower, enough to power the large sedan to 60 mph (96 km/h) in 2.7 seconds." The P version has 1,111 HP but sacrifices 49 miles of range.

The publication says drivers must rely on charging infrastructure if they plan to drive longer distances." reports InsideEVs: "While nearly 400 miles of range is a pretty solid estimate for an EV produced today, it's interesting that BMW would state that it has no intention of striving for more range. WhichCar writes that BMW i4 project leader David Ferrufino said the automaker won't target a 1,000-kilometer driving range." He said: "One thousand kilometres of range is not a target we have with our fully-electric cars. We are aiming for 600 kilometres [of driving range] for our fully-electric cars, and 100 kilometres with our plug-in hybrids in everyday driving. For example, we don't think a range of 600 kilometres will be suitable for a BMW i3 as an urban car, but when it comes to the BMW iX or i4, we think that around 600 kilometres is a very customer-friendly solution."

The 2,000 planned edition vehicles are to be distinguished by the particularly high-quality and exclusive design and equipment features, such as individualised exterior paintwork and a black insert for the rear bumper." writes electrive.com: "In the interior of the edition vehicles, the Suite equipment line with its leather and fine wood trim and Ambiente lighting will be supplemented by specific design elements: the front headrests will have “Unique Forever” lettering, and the door trim panels in the area of the exterior mirrors will bear the inscription “One of 2 000”."

Hello and welcome back to Equity, TechCrunch's venture capital-focused podcast, where we unpack the numbers behind the headlines.We were a smaller team this week, with Natasha and Alex together with Grace and Chris to sort through a week that brought together both this quarter's earnings cycle, and the Q3 IPO rush. So, it was just a little busy!Before we get to topics, however, a note that we are having a lot of fun recording these live on Twitter Spaces. We've found a hacky way to capture local audio and also share the chats live. So, hit us up on Twitter so you can hang out with us. It's fun - and we may even bring you up on stage to play guest host.Ok, now, to the Great List of Subjects:Robinhood went public! Yep, at long last, it is done. The company priced at $38 per share, the low end of its range, and had a medium-weak day of trading once it started to float. In short, Robinhood seems to have deftly priced its IPO, leaving zero fat on the table. So, it is now richer than ever, and public. More here.Earnings! We took a moment to chat about earnings reports from Alphabet, and Microsoft, and Shopify. Why? Because we care lots about the cloud and platform companies. So, we took a minute to chat about public cloud results, and what Shopify got up to.Batteries! Tesla is moving towards iron-based batteries, and is looking to source other materials direct. At the same time battery recycling is raising lots of cash, and Nikola is Not Dead. We call it two truths and a lie.Unicorns and soon-to-be's: Contentful raised $175M at a $3B valuation from Tiger for its content delivery service, Squire, a barbershop tech platform, tripled its valuation (again) with Tiger Global (again), and Class squashed acquisition rumors with SoftBank Vision Fund II funding,More venture rounds! To cap off our venture roundup, two neat healthtech investments stood out, namely rounds from both Oova and Peppy.

Global carbon emissions fell in 2020 for the first time in decades, due to the pandemic and the resulting economic slowdown. Empty airports and quiet highways meant fewer planes and cars spewing carbon dioxide into the air. The decline was significant, but emissions need to fall even more - for several years in a row - in order to reach the emissions goals set by the Paris Climate Agreement. To make matters worse: emissions are rising again.   On today's Brainstorm, Michal Lev-Ram and Brian O'Keefe examine ways technology can help combat climate change. Andrew Beebe, a Managing Director with the early-stage venture firm Obvious Ventures, talks about the enormous business opportunity decarbonizing the global economy poses, and talks about the companies his firm is backing, from electric buses to flying cars.  JB Straubel, CEO and Founder of Redwood Materials discusses recycling batteries for electric vehicles. The co-founder and former CTO of Tesla says battery recycling, as a relatively new field, is ripe for innovation.    Also in the episode, Rob Niven, Founder and CEO of Carbon Cure, talks about enabling the concrete industry to improve operations while reducing its carbon footprint.  

In today's episode: Samsung unveils its new midrange phones, the Galaxy A52, A52 5G and A72, we talk about these all new interesting phones packed with 90Hz+ displays, IP67 water/dust resistance, 64MP main sensor with OIS and some awesome specs. The Galaxy S21 FE is launching later in the year, along with Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 2, but, weirdly enough, the new Galaxy Note 21 may not launch due to chip shortages possibly. OnePlus 9 Pro will have 50W wireless fast charging finally, OnePlus Watch will not have Wear OS by Google, but will have seamless connectivity, heartrate tracking and more. We've got a leak for Xiaomi's first foldable and E-bike batteries could be recyclable thanks to a tie-up between bikemaker Specialized and renowned recycler Redwood Materials.

一、《經濟學人》總評 ● 本期最佳文章：綠色能源投資 ● 整體評價： B+ 封面故事 隨著美國大選的臨近，《經濟學人》也玩起了「話中有話」的封面設計，在陰霾密布的天空下，我們看見的是美國白宮屋頂那面隨風飄揚的殘破國旗。有趣的是，國旗尾端殘破痕跡組成的，其實是正在張口咆哮的川普。上面幾個大字：〈Why it has to be Joe Biden〉(為什麼必須是拜登)。《經濟學人》認為，川普褻瀆了美國價值，而拜登提供了一個修復和革新的未來。 另外在Briefing專文，《經濟學人》用了兩篇論文〈The Trump audit, part I and II〉，盤點了川普任期期間對美國與美國以外世界的意義： 正面意義--他在美國推動的減稅、放鬆管制和任命保守派的法官；讓位在最貧窮四分之一的工人階級工資增長了4.7％；中小企業的信心也到達了30年的峰值。此外，通過限制移民，他讓當初投票給他的人得到了他們想要的東西。 負面意義--美國價值的崩壞。在過去四年中，他一再褻瀆了價值觀、原則和做法，這些東西是使美國能夠成為美國人民避風港和全球燈塔的主要原因 推薦文章 這期《經濟學人》雜誌花了兩篇文章探討了綠色能源的投資世界，也就是我一再強調的E-mobility，讀了很過癮，分別是緒論第二篇〈Green innovation：Breaking through〉(綠色創新：突破性進展)，以及商業板塊第一篇〈The return of green VC：Greenbacks for greenery〉(綠色創投的回歸：追求綠色能源的資金) 重點摘要： 1. 各國政府正在排隊設定著本世紀中葉需要達成的氣候目標。日本在10/26表示將消除所有日本的溫室氣體，在過去的一個月，中國和韓國相繼宣佈了其經濟將實現碳中和，其中VW宣佈在中國投資170億美元的MEB（純電動模塊化）平台工廠，規模超過Tesla。歐盟也在三月公佈了自己的「Net zero計劃」。 英國和法國甚至將這些目標放進了法律。 更不用說台灣的友達、鴻海前陣子的電動車大計劃。而下周拜登如果勝利，他可能會讓美國走上類似的道路。 2. 世界上的綠色創新企業喜歡高調宣揚自己的成功，一個擁有氣候維持技術的企業股價已開始飆升。 特斯拉的市值更達到了3850億美元，超過了排名其後三大汽車製造商的市值總和。 今年，中國的比亞迪市值也增長了兩倍之多。本月，清潔能源公司NextEra正式超越了ExxonMobile成為美國市值最大的能源公司。 在過去的四年，創業投資（VC）公司的交易增加了一倍以上。 3. 如今，全球各地投入的相關資金仍然不足以支持創新。 研發支出主要來自三個方面：創業投資、政府和各大能源公司。 他們對專注於氣候的科技和創新公司的年度合併投資總額超過了800億美元。 但相比之下，這只是單一科技公司Amazon研發支出的兩倍而已。 4. 比較特別的是，和20世紀中葉不一樣，這次的綠色投資熱潮，不只是政府在政策、基礎建設的投入，各類綠色創投、家族基金、企業家都競相投入。在特斯拉驚奇的成功推動下，按價值計算，約有一半的直投交易用於低碳出行，2004年，Elon Musk以650萬美元的價格收購了這家電動汽車製造商14％的股份。 六年後，該公司上市，如今市值達3850億美元，超過任何其他的汽車製造商。 僅馬斯克所持股份價值就可能價值720億美元，僅次於通用汽車和福特的總和。 5. 根據Cleantech Group的統計，大企業參與了大約四分之一的交易，而2010年為16％。他們通過創業投資或直接提供資本進行投資。 包括ExxonMobil在內的石油巨頭已經建立了清潔投資基金。 Energy Impact Partners更試圖集合20家公用事業公司設立一家公司，例如美國的南方公司和英國的國家電網。電子商務帝國Amazon已經支持了五家初創企業，其中包括電動麵包車初創公司Rivian和電池回收公司Redwood Materials。 6. 軟件巨人微軟，消費品巨頭Unilever和傢具製造商IKEA也放寬了他們的錢包。富裕的個人也是如此，他們像創業投資基金一樣，傾向於代表更多的耐心資本。 家族辦公室也參與了大約8-10％的交易，而2010年為4％。微軟的Bill Gates招募了20位富豪，其中有美國（Jeff Bezos），中國（Jack Ma）和印度（Mukesh Ambani）成立了一個基金，準備支持40家初創企業，並將持續長達20年。 中國版塊 財經板塊第二篇〈Making inroads：The overseas activities of Chinese banks shift up a gear〉(取得進展：中資銀行的海外業務向高位轉移) 1. 今年6月的數據說明它的存款接受者，包括中國的一些政策性銀行，已經佔據了全球跨境貸款總流量的7％，這不但高於2015年的5％，而且它們已經成功貸款給了全球216個國家中的196個。 2. 今天中國的銀行群已經向發展中國家提供了所有跨境貸款的26％，其中大多數還是以美元計價。這不但比2016年的五分之一已經有所上升，而且自疫情發生以來還在一直上升。 財經板塊第四篇〈Caveat victor：If China's economy is so strong, why isn't its currency stronger?〉(警告勝利者：如果中國的經濟如此強勁，為什麼它的貨幣不是那麼堅挺？) 1. 過去半年讓大家看見了一個謎團。鑒於大量的海外資金流入，人民幣是如何在不抵消外匯存底的情況下保持穩定的？一種可能解釋是在中國的商業銀行資產負債表上。 自4月份以來，他們的海外淨資產（扣除債務）已經飆升了1,250億美元。 二、外媒相關報導 這周最大的新聞：螞蟻集團IPO 1. 《經濟學人》10/9日刊登封面文章深度解析即將在上海、香港兩地IPO的螞蟻集團。螞蟻集團的發展為中國成為數字支付領域的全球領軍者做出了貢獻，但螞蟻的發展也存在各種挑戰，比如支付市場的競爭、複雜的監管環境和國際環境。 2. 十年間，螞蟻的發展反映了了數字金融的崛起與未來。其創造的 「310」信貸模式-即3分鐘申請、不到1秒審批和0人工干預，看似天方夜譚，但考慮其能夠支撐雙11巨量訂單處理的計算能力，也足見其技術實力。 法新社報道：螞蟻或代表未來經濟模式：北京大學外籍教授陶迅（傑弗里·托森）說：「他們正在做的事情是革命性的。」他說：「我們將看到數字金融做到我們從未想過的事情，進入我們從未想過的行業。」 據路透社10月7日援引彭博社報道，由於擔心中國螞蟻集團和騰訊的數字支付平台威脅所謂美國「國家安全」，美國正在考慮針對它們出台限制措施。 美國CNBC報導稱，美國對螞蟻集團的制裁將只是很大的象徵意義」：they'll be largely symbolic。 CNN也認為，美國對螞蟻集團的制裁只是個「空洞的威脅」。因為螞蟻在美業務很少，美國政府似乎沒有什麽實際行動可以損害這家金融科技公司。 《金融時報》社論指出〈The march of Ant is a Chinese success story ：Fintech group's increasing power raises policy issues for regulators〉(螞蟻的前進是一個中國的成功故事，這個金融科技集團越來越大的勢力激發了監管機構的政策議題。) 《華爾街日報》社論：〈螞蟻集團IPO：你需要瞭解的七個關鍵問題〉 1. 螞蟻集團可能通過首次公開募股融資超過340億美元，有望打破全球融資總額紀錄並獲得遠超3,000億美元的估值。這將使其躋身全球估值最高的科技公司之列。 2. 螞蟻集團的貸款業務如何運作？ 支付寶把中國約100家銀行與需要短期貸款的消費者和小企業連接起來。支付寶的信貸業務花唄(Huabei)和借唄(Jiebei)為數以百萬計的個人發放貸款。螞蟻集團的關聯公司浙江網商銀行(MYbank)向小企業提供貸款。 3. 人們如何利用螞蟻集團進行投資？ 螞蟻集團與中國約170家資產管理公司合作為支付寶用戶提供投資方案，這些公司包括共同基金、保險公司、銀行和證券公司。支付寶提供了從公募基金到銀行定期存款在內的逾6,000種產品，餘額寶(Yu'e Bao)是其中的招牌產品，可讓人們把閒錢投資貨幣市場基金。螞蟻集團和Vanguard集團(The Vanguard Group)運營的機器人顧問幫助投資者挑選收費低的基金進行投資。與此同時，螞蟻集團的保險科技(InsureTech)業務銷售一系列的保險產品，涵蓋了從運輸延誤到意外事故等各類保險產品。 4. 螞蟻集團實現盈利了嗎？ 是的。今年上半年，螞蟻集團的營業利潤率為34%，這意味著該公司每獲得1美元的收入，就能取得34美分的息稅前利潤。 5. 這些收入主要來自兩方面。螞蟻集團在人們使用支付寶進行交易時從商家收取費用，並從在其平台上發放貸款或銷售投資產品的銀行和其他金融公司賺取費用。儘管移動支付在螞蟻集團業務中佔很大一部分，而且還在不斷增長，但其數字金融平台的收入增長更快。 6. 雖然螞蟻集團在中國是巨頭，但在全球的業務仍相當有限。支付寶在海外主要作為中國遊客在國外的一種支付選擇。螞蟻集團雖然入股了一些擁有數字錢包的海外支付公司，但該公司絕大部分收入仍然來自中國。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

The latest, newest attacks against clean energy, namely “Oh my God, what are we going to do with all those solar panels and wind turbines and batteries at the end of their lives” and "Oh my God, what about the mining practices employed to get the materials necessary for clean energy ” are, in one word, bollocks.In Episode 42 of The Angry Clean Energy Guy, you will hear how the take-back and treatment of solar panels, inverters and batteries is already mandatory in the EU and is going global; how technologies to recycle solar panels are today everywhere around us and some reach an astonishing 96% recycling efficiency; how you can already recycle 85 to 90% of the total mass of wind turbines; and how 95% of lithium-ion battery components are being turned into new batteries or used in other industries. Most importantly perhaps, you can also see why the DNA of the clean energy industry is about building a circular economy around its products, in contrast to the DNA of Big Oil, which is about destroying, free of charge to them, our habitat.
