About this episode
China has won the race to power electric vehicles – what does that mean for the West? Host Carmel Crimmins talks to Greater China Bureau Chief Kevin Krolicki and correspondent Marie Mannes in Stockholm about the implications of Chinese dominance in EV batteries. Plus, we travel to the Swedish town of Skelleftea, roughly 125 miles south of the Arctic circle, to hear about the financial collapse of Northvolt, Europe’s would-be battery champion.
