“BYD also claims to have addressed the well-known issue of lithium iron phosphate cells losing performance in cold temperatures. After the cells were stored for 24 hours at –30 degrees Celsius and therefore completely frozen, charging from 20 to 97 per cent reportedly took just twelve minutes.”
As the US sabotages the globe’s fossil fuel infrastructure at the behest of Israel, China continues to build the future that will replace it. One by one, the naysayers’ objections to EVs melt away. Can’t do cold climates, they said - fixed. Can’t cope with long journeys, they said - fixed.
As Napoleon once famously observed, ‘never interrupt your enemy while they’re making a mistake’. China must be thinking that, as the US helps hand it total dominance of the 21st century energy infrastructure.

They also said that if everybody installed a charger in their house the grid would collapse, but suddenly there’s excess capacity for all those data centers
The title is editorialized, doesn’t reflect the article actual headline.
I’m not saying it’s innacurate. I’m saying it’s better to provide commentary in a comment, rather than altering the title.
Batteries don’t have ranges? The title is a bit annoying lol.
As the US sabotages the globe’s fossil fuel infrastructure at the behest of Israel
Wait … so maybe this war is actually based?
Yes! Let’s attack every oil-producing country in the world, cause oil prices to skyrocket, and thus cause widespread adoption of EVs and renewable energy. It’s the perfect plan!
The USA produces lots of fossiel fuel, enough for its own consumption and then some for export.
It’s not obvious, at least to me, that high oil prices would negatively affect (US) oil companies.
Did I make an exception for the US? Obviously, the Trump regime will attack the US as well.
And if the Hormuz blockage continues China will be unable to manufacture them. Nor deliver them.
The earth isnt flat
Why? It only blocks off the oil producing countries in Arabia, the way from China to the Suez Canal doesn’t go through it.
40% of China’s oil supply goes through Hormuz. 25-30% for LNG. Manufacturing and shipping will be severely affected.
Claims… Claims… Claims.
Okay.
Not saying they’re lying but… You know, Tesla, Elmo Musk, made claims after claims after lie after claim lie after… And none of it was true. The guy pretty much invented serial lying.
So now when I see these extraordinary claims, I’m juuuuuuust a tiny teensie bit skeptical. I’ll believe it when an independent company verifies this, not a single second before
wouldnt sabotaging fossil fuel infrastructure be extremely good thing, considering fossil fuels are making planet less habitable? usa doing it is the last thing i would expect.(an yes, i know they dont do it for the planet) Nice to read these kinds of surprisingly positive news for change.
It will just get more expensive.
What exactly, you might ask?
The answer is
…
yes.

Ah, finally a good explanation!
Thank you, I can see my mistake, sorry about that!
What the hell happened in this comment graveyard?
I missread the post, made a joke, people got mad, I doubled down, I got insulted, the issue was explained in another response, I admitted I was wrong, mods came in just as I had posted an explanation.
Eh, minor drama, though I am still annoyed about the insult.

Well, China has always been good at making impressive fireworks.
