The avoidance of fossil fuels requires alternative minerals. There could be a crisis in the supply of these metals.
Not only is the number of electric cars on the rise, but the number of charging points is also increasing. In Germany, there are now likely to be more than 100,000. The number of fast-charging stations is also increasing. Nickel is one of the materials used in vehicles. Whether crankshafts or axles, the metal is not only used in solar modules and wind turbines. Nickel is also an essential element in lithium-ion batteries. At the same time, as can be seen at CES, the leading electronics trade fair in the USA, artificial intelligence is increasingly finding its way into cars.
There are already major manufacturers who are installing ChatGPT in their car models, certainly increasingly as standard. The drive systems of electric and hybrid vehicles, for example, require neodymium compounds. This rare metal is also used in hard disks, some wind turbines and in the manufacture of the strongest magnets. All of these developments increasingly require certain raw materials.
And how electric mobility is promoted in various countries can be seen in Italy and France, for example. Under certain conditions, the purchase of an electric car in Italy can receive a subsidy of up to 13,750 euros. After all, Bella Italia is home to the oldest vehicles in Europe.
France has been working with a penalty tax since 2020. If you buy a particularly climate-unfriendly combustion engine there, such as a large SUV, the maximum penalty tax rate of up to 60,000 euros (!) can be imposed. Progress and electromobility are good. Hydrogen vehicles could reduce CO2 emissions in heavy goods traffic. This is because fuel cell technology is particularly promising in this area.
