Don’t worry; Indonesia has a lot of nickel that has plunged the nickel prices around the world, which will certainly decrease the cost of making batteries since the mines are owned by… China. Ahh fuck.
the cheapest battery chemistry, used in most affordable EVs, uses no nickel or cobalt. “Race”/premium EVs still want to use that type of battery, though
With all the batteries being made in China, it will be very hard to compete on a level ground.
