America wants to transfer to itself factories Li-Ion batteries

America set the task to overtake Asia in the production of lithium-ion batteries. $ 2 billion will be spent on this, which is one of the most significant "technological" items of expenditure in the recently adopted economic stimulus plan.



According to American economists (and lobbyists who happily joined them from industrial syndicates like Boston-Power Inc.), the transfer of plants from China to the US will create a huge number of jobs: for example, each plant with a couple hundred employees can generate up to 10,000 jobs per through the entire supply chain and sales.



The industry of such energy over time can become the new engine of the American economy instead of the dying auto industry. There is no need to fear competition here, because there are only a couple of large lithium deposits (that is, salt marshes) in the world, and America is fully capable of transferring all the mining to itself through intergovernmental agreements.

In addition, the same Boston-Power Inc. There are patented technologies for the production of batteries with improved characteristics (they are now put in Hewlett-Packard laptops), so the company is able to crush all, even in the open market.



Although funding has already been allocated, but specific recipients have not yet been transferred. It is likely that $ 2 billion will be spent not on transferring plants, but on something more useful, for example, R & D.
